Well, I don't know about wintel boxes (ain't any around here) but UAE 0.8.6
running on a Power Mac 7300 (PPC 604e @ 200MHz) is really quite good. The
only thing missing is support for real-life Amiga CDs: earlier incarnations
of the program would support external file systems, but this got broken
during the development process.
