060 emulation is pointless since the 060 is just a faster 040

Uuummmm, no ... it's not.  060 is superscalar architecture while 040 is not, 8K caches versus 4K caches, bus snooping, execs 3 instructions/clock, etc......

See these two pages for comparison:
Motorola 68040
Motorola 68060

... and UAE is alreaady a faster than the fastest 060.

I'll agree with you on that point.  :-)

What I would really like to see in WinUAE is no need for an AmigaROM Kickstart.

Probably will never happen due to legal/copyright issues.

From a software point of view, the 060 is the same as the 040. An emulator deals with sw not hardware.

thats why I suggested using AROS :-)

Let's hope Rich Drummond's improvements to the Linux version is the start of a catch-up phase

I should have a release based on 0.8.23 out fairly soon. I'm going to do one more 0.8.22 release first - with hardfile support. That should be ready within a few days . . .

Cheers,
Rich

I'd like to see an up-to-date AMiGA PPC version of UAE with a little nice GUI. My latest version here is "UAE Amiga-PPC/WarpUp 0.8.11 R1.0", no GUI :-(

Ah... but PC software (PowerDVD, WMP9, WinDVD etc) won't recognise/play non-standard VCD's such as Philips Digital Video discs (which IIRC are yellow-standard and not white-standard, or something like that!) It was supposed to be a format unique to Philips CDI machines, which Commodore "accidentally" provided compatibility for with the FMV module (therefore significantly increasing the number of films available for the CD32)!!! Besides, I want the Cannon Fodder FMV intro to work!

In the case of cannon fodder, the intro is just a standard mpeg track and can be played in pretty much any vcd playing software.  I havent met a cdrom drive incapable of reading vcd.
