This is a question Redundant technology

Music on vinyl records, mobile phones the size of house bricks and pornography printed on paper. What hideously out of date stuff do you still use?

Thanks to boozehound for the suggestion

Ha! Oh dear...
and what was the point of pushing the mouse button? It just repeated the problem.

AND disk doctor on workbench never fixed a corrupt disk for me. Not once.

There is an emulator for PC
But to work it you need a copy of the workbench .adf file. You can get most of the old games from abandonware sites too. Not sure how legal it is as most of the companies (Ocean Software, Mirrorsoft etc) are no more.

I also one found a PC version of Dungeon Master which is an open source thingy that was 100% faithful to the original. RPGs just aint like they used to be.

Amiga Forever
www.amigaforever.com/

A totally legal way of getting hold of Amiga ROMs, loads of games, demos and other stuff. The cheapest version is only $US 9.95, but I recommend the plus edition at $29.95. Sure you can probably illegally find all the ROMs and stuff and fart around with it to get it working, but you get a good, working copy of Universal Amiga Emulator with AmigaForever, and a pre-installed Workbench environment all ready for you to use.

It is a bit fiddly, but if you know your Amiga stuff, you'll be able to work it out.
