By "emulation under emulation" I mean the old argument that some OS4 fanatic gave me when I first bought my SAM, which I love by the way: For what it is.
He told me any old legacy Amiga program that won't natively run under OS4 can just be run in UAE for OS4. I understood the solution he was proposing, but didn't exactly rejoice in the fact I bought an overpriced and underpowered SAM just to have to run UAE - and in fact, I had no expectations of the SAM being able to run programs without a hitch that were coded 20 years ago, heh. I may have been optimistic, but I was also realistic when I got a "modern Amiga".
The fact remained I have a $100 PC beside me that can run all my old Amiga apps under Amithlon/3.1 100x faster than UAE on the SAM, so it was sort of a mixed bag of enjoying the modern SAM while realizing its' limitations.
Was also at that time I started trying to learn C to convert some of these old programs I would love to see run flawlessly and natively on my SAM, in my case - old BBS software.
