Mantisspider:

IMHO one impostant thing is to remember is how future proof these softwares are? ..  I'm quite sure that a lot of those people coming back rather spend their $$$ to new hardware instead of purchasing 7 year old computer...

So what's needed is information of what programs are in actual development and how many of them will work without any UAE-like kludgery.

Of course. It woudl also be nice to be able to tell future users where those programs can be purchased/downloaded.. Some of those softwares mentioned on this thread are no longer on active development and also hard to find as a new.

Some  programs..

ImageFX,  active. available from  http://www.novadesign.com/
Personal Paint, Essentially dead., comes with Amigaforever http://www.amigaforever.com/

Ib>bE ..   Assumingly program is available as a free stuff from net and it works cleanly, like TVPaint,  it's not much of an issue. BUT if there are problems on future machine compatibility it'll become an issue. Unless of course you are planing to use those programs on UAE for the eternity.

In the end.. there will be time to move on future generation machhines. And they make much more strict requirements on OS/system compatibility than these years old A1200+hacks people are still using.
