    I did try one many years ago, but for the A2000. It was only a XT emulator I think so quite slow, but it ran DOS stuff quite well that I tried.

    I think a 286 hardware emulator was released later. But they have limited appeal these days as they don't offer the graphics card or soundblaster support for DOS gaming, so are limited to business DOS applications mostly.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    I agree that they aren't as useful due to the lack of graphics card and SB-support for DOS gaming. However, I'd really like to test it out.

    I saw this card on eBay a while ago:

    Vortex - Atonce

    This one is supposed to work with the Amiga 500. Looks interesting!

    The Golden Gate series of hardware emulators does even come with a 486 (or 386) CPU. You would need to have a big box Amiga for these ones though.
