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?

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
