The Amiga was a tremendously complex machine, with multiple revisions to its hardware and system software. This can make emulation quite tricky, as figuring out the requirements for any specific game can be fairly difficult.  A commercial package exists, "Amiga Forever", from Cloanto, which elides past many of the complexities of Amiga emulation. It includes fully licensed ROMs, system disks, and (for applicable machines) hard drive OS images for every model that Commodore shipped. The package itself is basically beffectively a very sophisticated frontend for WinUAE and WinFellow but comes with pre-configured setups for many games. If you have sufficient expertise, you can manually do everything it's doing, but it's pretty convenient even for experts. It's also the easiest way to get legal copies of the original system ROMs.

The Amiga 1000 was released on July 23, 1985 , for {{Inflation|USD|1285|1985}}. It had a Motorola 68000 at 7.16 MHz with 256KB 256 KBs of RAM.

The Amiga 3000 was released in June of 1990 and retailed for {{Inflation|USD|3379|1990}}. It had a Motorola 68030 at 16 MHz , but it could be upgraded to 25 MHz. It had 2MB 2 MBs of RAM.

The Amiga 3000UX was released in 1990 and was really just the 3000 but with the new Amiga Unix.

The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga_CD32 Amiga CD³²] is an Amiga 1200-based console that came with a CD-ROM drive and was first released in September 1993. It could also be upgraded to mimic an Amiga 1200 PC by equipping it with third-party add-ons like a keyboard, floppy drive, hard drive, RAM , or a and mouse. A hardware MPEG decompression module for playing Video CD CDs was also released.

The Amiga 4000T was released in 1994 and had a 68040 CPU at 25 MHz with 2MB 2 MBs of RAM. ==Emulation of PowerPC Amiga and AmigaOS 4==PowerPC-based Amiga computers were made by a few different enterprises under the license of Commodore International after its demise. They come with a new version of AmigaOS, AmigaOS 4.x, which only runs on PowerPC-based Amiga hardware or Motorola 68K-based Amiga computers with extra PowerPC acceleration boards. [[QEMU]] supports emulation of [https://www.acube-systems.biz/index.php?page=hardware&pid=5 Sam460ex] motherboard manufactured by ACube Systems, which is officially supported by AmigaOS 4.1, but usability is yet to be determined. [[FS-UAE]] and [[WinUAE]] can emulate the PowerPC acceleration board, so it could also run AmigaOS 4.x if a compatible PowerPC acceleration board such as [http://8bitplus.co.uk/articles/amiga-blizzard-ppc/ Blizzard PPC] has been properly configured. Extra ROM files are required to emulate these acceleration boards. ==68K Amiga emulation on PowerPC Amiga and AmigaOS 4==AmigaOS 4.x comes with 2 68K Amiga emulators: BlackBox and Petunia, and they will automatically start when trying to run old 68K-based Amiga programs. BlackBox is an interpretive emulator. Thus the emulation speed is mediocre but provides lower input latency and better compatibility; Petunia uses dynamic recompilation to speed up emulation but consumes more memory and with less compatibility. Petunia could be disabled entirely on boot to save memory or only for certain programs that are not compatible with it. Check [https://wiki.amigaos.net/wiki/UserDoc:How_AmigaOS_Works#Motorola_680x0_Emulators AmigaOS 4 Documentation] for more information. AmigaOS 4.x never make use of real 68K hardware, even when running on an actual 68K-based Commodore Amiga with the PowerPC acceleration board. On emulated PowerPC-based Amiga, both emulators run quite slow as it's running an emulator inside an emulator, causing great performance loss.
