Amiga Emulation

Anyone played around with Amiga emulators much?

Basically what I`d like to do is to have an old laptop boot straight into the Amiga OS by running an emulator on a cut down OS, either linux or 98micro or an nlited XP.

From what I can gather, the Amiga Forever live cd will do that but I hear it`s a bit pants and I want to run off the hard drive and not off a cd.

anyone tried doing something like that?

failing that, anyone managed to get Midwinter 2 running either the old Dos version or the amiga version?

sorry, the only amiga emu i ever used was part of the auto install for the Mk1 xbox (it`s on both slayers & aid 1.0)

hope that helps ?

I think the xbox one is a port of WinUAE, it runs ok enough on my pc but I basically want a dedicated machine for it.

the actual amiga forums I`ve seen are pretty damn geeky so thought I`d see if anyone here had tried it before I ask on there.

Of course they are. Amiga fans are like the hardest of the hardcore, in a constant bubble of collective self-denial that the Amiga platform ever died. It takes a lot of geek power to maintain such an illusion.

yup, to view this wierd state of mind, go buy a copy of micro mart, they still carry an amiga section, ranging from a couple of columns to 3 pages every issue :/
