thats AmiThlon. AmigaOS XL is a full UAE system...so is the 'slower but
more compatible' solution you can run....probably direct off CD if you
have an Amiga HD installed in the PC (i guess a bootmenu system)

> Studio, Transwrite, OctaMED SS, etc should run OK.

why do you think Bars&Pipes will work? It barely opens properly on a gfx
card screen...also I'm concerned about the 'no custom chips' of
Amithlon...that also means no basic sound...you have to depend on AHI
