Emulation is not the same as using real amiga.  I'll leave it at that for now...
no, it's not the same....but WinUAE is convenient

and right now I think it's the only practical way to have a "portable Amiga" if you install it in a laptop.

and, because it's still Amiga at least in some sense, it's still fun.

it's all about choice and what people can afford or what is available to them.

it's really that simple

Indeed.  The future is in VMs.  I don't care how well some crappy old multiplane scrolling jump twitch game plays or doesn't.  If the Amiga has anything to offer beyond insular nostalgia, it'll be in an emulated format.

Otherwise it's a dead platform.
indeed!

thank the gods for emulation!!!
