I'll put in a second vote for AmiKit. As for why, it just works and works very well. It has a ton of nice looking and functional extras that come in very handy from time to time.
Although I prefer DiskMaster2 over DirectoryOpus as my file utility of choice, I have yet to disable or remove DirOpus from my AmiKit install.
One of the things I like most about AmiKit is that it has an automatic update feature (so does AmigaForever) so when newer versions of the programs within AmiKit are available, the author of AmiKit makes the upgrades available and automatically installed for us.
I have enough Amiga projects to keep me busy 24/7 for many years to come without needing to find and manually install these upgraded files in my free time, so I really appreciate this part of AmiKit & AmigaForever.
I also stay up late playing Sudoku (too often), which is provided free with several other games.
I feel like the the author of AmiKit is working for me. He is out there searching for all the latest and greatest upgrades and extras for the emulated Amiga so I don't have to.
For games, AmigaForever 2008 has a nice front-end player for ease of use that appears to be very good at what it does.
I strongly recommend both programs to anyone and everyone.
Edit: I think I must be rambling today, now that the Morphine is kicking in to dull the pain in my back a little. That and ice have enabled me to get up and move around again. So, please forgive the length of my messages today, I think I should not type under the influence. :lol:
