Default Wine FPGA emulation board

Can you make a windows/DirectX emulator on hardware by using a FPGA board or something similar?

If it's possible, it will be pricey and most likely very slow, and IMHO not worth it.

IOW: it would be nothing more than an academic curiosity.

Of course, if that's what you're going for (i.e. speed is irrelevant) then by all means, yes.

A bit too much for a master thesis, don't you think?
