And for extra credit, you could run the z/VM on Hercules on an x86 box :)

I am going out on a limb here and suggesting that Mantissa somehow
compiled something like ReactOS?

Mantissa figured out a way to run X86 (32-bit and 64-bit) binaries and
operating systems on top of z/VM. (ReactOS, Windows, Linux, *BSD, anything)

Looks pretty slick. Based on what they've leaked on this and other email
lists, they leverage CP services and functions to optimize the
capabilities of the underlying z hardware. They've been wowing people at
SHARE and other conferences for at least the past 5 years. I have not
heard if they actually released a salable product or if anyone has
purchased, trialed, or beta tested.

A somewhat slower performer would be to port BOCHS to CMS and run your
Windoze systems on that.
