Not verified?
[edit]What about that "not verified" notice at the top? I fail to see any controversial or uncertain content. Coma28 14:06, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
WinUAE features
[edit]Is it worth considering adding in some of the networking aspects of WinUAE. For example newer versions can emulate bsdsocket.library givnig the Amigas OS access to the host PCs network and internet resources.
WinUAE-Kaillera via a Kaillera server allows two identically configured WinUAEs to communicate over a network or the internet. This allows multiplayer games to be played over more than one machine.
WinUAE can also read amiga hard drives RDB, so take a hard drive from an amiga, put in a PC and winUAE can boot it. It doesnt matter if the drive is formatted as FFS, SFS or whatever.
WinUAE cannot Emulate an Amigas PPC processor or any other graphics cards execpt the Picasso96.
Amiga In a Box is also worth a mention or a link to. A fantastic user interface and some free games on their site to download.

Page move
[edit]"Unix Amiga Emulator" isn't accurate and it's neither the current official expansion (which is, I believe, "UAE") nor the original expansion (Useless/Unusable Amiga Emulator). I've moved the page and fixed the disambig page. Chris Cunningham 20:58, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
Name
[edit]Didn't it once mean "the ubiquitous amiga emulator" ? --Xerces8 (talk) 21:16, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
Amiga Forever
[edit]What is it ? Why is it linked ? --Xerces8 (talk) 15:59, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
- Not sure if you mean the current link (not prepared to wade back in time). Amiga Forever is a package which contains preconfigured UAE and WinUAE installations (among other things) and more importantly licensed versions of the ROMs and Workbench/AmigaOS. I believe that it is the only Amiga emulation package to include these components. Jesus on E's (talk) 12:50, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
Features: What a mess
[edit]Features of various forks (UAE/WinUAE) are mixed without hesitation. Although this section is well sourced, most informations are horribly outdated (AGA compatibility problems based on reference from 2002!!!!!). Maybe it would be good idea to base features section on most advanced (and probably most used) fork: WinUAE. I could do needed changes myself, but I will wait for opinion of others.Pavlor (talk) 12:12, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
