  Regarding a recent posting that the atari can't emulate an amiga since
it doesn't have the hardware, but the amiga can emulate an atari since
they both use 68000's, ha.
  Neither can emulate the other for the first reason you mentioned.  The
atari has the midi ports, and the amiga just doesn't have them.  
  Aside from this, the task of emulating an atari without midi ports is
really tough to do without breaking copyright laws (ie: copy the roms).
  Granted that you break to law to speed development, you still have to
find out what all the hardware addresses are even us registered
developers don't know a lot of that (look at 70% of the messages in this
group which bet for information...)
  Finally, I would say that reading the disks (or converting them) would
be rather easy providing the controllers weren't too different.  The
specs for IBMpc style disks are widely available.

 PS: Its hard to be more arrogant than having a "AMIGA RULES!!" in your
.sig file and using it when you post to INFO-ATARI16. (especially when
you're wrong.)
