When can we start emulating the Yellow Grid?

Discuss the reverse engineering and emulation (as opposed to simulation) of any sort of Prevue hardware, including Atari-based and Amiga-based EPG channels and the Amiga-based Prevue/TV Guide channels.

Since it's WinNT based, I assume all we need is a virtual machine?

We'll need the actual software for it too, which is rare as hell.
(Not Windows NT. I meant the Yellow Grid software.)

2021 EDIT (for anyone just now discovering this thread): Since this thread, we've gotten our hands on the software.
1. The real name for the Yellow Grid is 'Hollywood'
2. 'I assume all we need is a virtual machine?' is true, however Hollywood relies on a very specific card, only built for use with the software. As of right now, nobody has been able to emulate this, however people are trying to.
