How good is the latest WinUAE?
« on: February 15, 2009, 05:28:37 AM »
How compatible is the latest WinUAE?  Will it run most games / demos accurately?

Running it on a P4 3.2GHz with HyperThreading.

Thanks.

Yea, I am primarily an OS X user (quad core Mac Pro and dual core Mac Book) but the UAE and E-UAE offerings there don't compare to WinUAE running on my P4 3.2GHz. I'm impressed.

I got the extended floppy sounds. One set is called "ST" - is that from an ST emulator?

I've long enjoyed ST emulators and have actual Amiga hardware (A2000 and A1200 tower '060) and Atari 520ST hardware at the house. Nothing beats the real metal, but nice to have a solid emulator.

Will WinUAE run most demos "very well" ?
