You are not thinking embedded....

How does the simulated hardware get access to the screen? 

On real hardware you have a serial port which you write debug messages
out. eCos has a device driver for the serial port and your hello world
will be using the serial port. But does the simulator have a simulated
serial port? Or is the serial drive just accessing memory addresses
that do nothing?
