The video that got me into Amigas
I recently found the video that made me go "Wow, Amigas are the shit"



Not exactly groundbreaking today, but to 15 year old me that was a feat that I had never seen before. An Amiga emulating a 68k mac.

Nice. If I'm not mistaken, on A3000/4000 you could run MacOS with the CS PPC card.

There was a PPC version of Fusion, it ran OK but was buggier than 68k.

I ran MacOS for quite some time on 68k, in principle to run newer web browsers but also a lot of Mac games worked better than on a real Mac via Shapeshifter.

I just got back into Amiga (via Vampire) during Nov/Dec 2020 COVIDtimes and am on the lookout for my old Mac drives in my storage so I can revisit it.
