One of the more reliable emulators is vMac < http://www.vmac.org/>.
Here's a description:
"vMac is a Macintosh emulator that currently emulates a Motorola 68000
based Apple Macintosh Plus. A ROM image from a Plus is required, we
plan to implement other 68000 machines, such as SEs and II series.
Currently System 7.5.5 is the latest vMac can boot, which is the latest
System a real MacPlus can boot. vMac runs in black an white, a larger
screen and color is the next thing we are working on. That's right,
vMac currently works and boots! All you need is a ROM image from a
MacPlus (utilities and directions provided), or a MacPlus ROM set on a
Gemulator ROM board (for Windows and UNIX ports) from Emulators Inc.
and your Windows, DOS, UNIX, OS/2, or NeXT machine can run vMac!"
vMac for OS X is available here:
<http://www.bannister.org/software/vmac.htm> I use it all the time to
run old software that won't work even in Classic.
