Versie 2.4.1 van WinUAE is uitgekomen. Deze Windows-port van de UAE Amiga-emulator is in staat om een Commodore Amiga perfect te emuleren. Alle modellen vanaf de allereerste Amiga 1000 tot en met de Amiga 4000, worden ondersteund. Wel moet je er rekening mee houden dat WinUAE zonder kickstart (boot-rom) of andere software wordt geleverd. Meer informatie kan in de Amiga Emulator FAQ worden gevonden. WinUAE draait op Windows 2000 en hoger, en de download is nog geen 4MB groot. Naast de emulator zijn nog een kickstart (bij wijze van spreken het bios/de firmware van een Amiga) en natuurlijk software nodig. Amiga Forever is hiervoor een mogelijke oplossing, met prijzen vanaf 10 euro. Het changelog voor deze uitgave kan hieronder worden gevonden.
