Need for 68K Mac VM?

Since I'm building 68K versions of the macintosh 3.0.x VM and 
occasionally having issues with that I thought I'd ask does anyone 
really use or want to use it on a 68K machine, or could one live with 
earlier versions, 2.6, 2.7 or 2.8, mm even 2.9?

One noticeable difference in 3.0 is that Morphic is really really 
slow on a 68K machine.

The 3.0.5 mac VM I have lurking DOES run on a 68K mac with System 
7.6.1, but does anyone care?

Oh and lastly I do need a few folks that have 68K machines to alpha 
test... Seem some people who have done this in the past now no longer 
have old macs around.
