Woot!  The screenshots look terrific, congratulations mate

I'm not really a fan of BitStream Vera, but I guess until we find a work around for the size/scaling of other fonts this will do for now

Guess I ought to get the AIAB add-on together now...

Take care,
James

Are Amiga Forever, amikit, aiab, and amisys all alternatives to each other or are they in some sense complimentary?  Can all exist on the same PC?

I guess all need the latest winUAE and Amiga Forever could supply the roms and the various AmigaOS but is there more synergy than this?

Thanks.

No, each kit is a big add-on that installs on top of a fresh, default OS3 partition. Each kit is specific and features different combinations of third-party apps and libraries. You can't install them all on a single system, it wouldn't make sense (and they would most certainly conflict with each others).

On the other hand, you can easily install each kit on its own system partition, especially under WinUAE. That can be convenient if you want to compare them to each other.

Thanks.  I appreciate your answer.

Can this be made to run on real Amiga hardware?  I am sure a 060 and graphics card are needed.

Can this be made to run on real Amiga hardware?

well... technically yes, practically no. Current package is fine-tuned for WinUAE only so if you want to run it on real Amiga some modifications are needed.
