Got it, installed it, played with it - very nice. When not using ADFs (i.e. using emulated hard disks and CD drives) it's damn fast too. Obviously it's not the same as running AOS 3.9 on a real Amiga but it's a nice addition.

I'm planning on having a 2.5" drive bay on rails that slides out of the front of my PC to attach an Amiga hard disk to that interfaces with the onboard IDE on my PC. Should be fun!
