Considering you need about 200Mhz for PDP-10 emulation, I think any 
Atom processor would be more than fast enough.  I've been looking 
into putting together an Atom-based system for this, and I am 
planning on a Dual-Core.

I used to have a dedicated box for PDP-10 emulation, it was built 
using a Celeron 500Mhz CPU.
