Well here's a thing I didn't think I wanted or needed. I just placed my order. I had to check first that it's not just ECS but AGA supported too. Back in the day I had an 060 card and 96mb of RAM... I wonder if this will feel slow? The only other thing is I was never a fan of the clunky A500 mouse, the A1200 mouse was so much nicer. I'm moaning already...

Oh yes certainly AGA as it’s an emulator, I suspect UAE on Linux, but don’t want to say till specs are officially released. They say it can go up to 030 speeds but I don’t think that will feel hugely slow, at least to me. I’m sure you’ll have some fun in a much less hassle way 😉
