   Sorry, no Amiga emulator (not counting practical jokes).

   Check out C64emu, at your favorite FTP-site. REALLY good. Runs all the  
   games I’ve tried, at the correct speeds even (on a Pentium…)

   Emulating the Amiga is even harder than emulating an Atari 8-bit because
   we are talking time-critical NTSC video manipulations like HAM vs.
   display list tricks.  Doing that in an analogous digital VGA environment
   and making it work right and time right is a TALL order.

   there
        I read in the Atari 800XL emulator’s manual that the emulated computer is
   usually at least 10X faster than the emulated (to get the emulated machine up
   to standard speed.)  Besides, the Commy only has 64K of RAM  I haven’t
   heard of an Amiga emulator myself either, although I have heard of an Atari ST
   one (Gemulator, and I think I’ve heard of others…)
