> modern amiga operating system

This is an oxymoron.

If retro hardware is a novelty then so is retro software. So is retro inspired software. It's novelty all the way down.

You can emulate anything; you don't need backwards compatibility. Both of those hardware devices are modern except for the software.

"Both of those hardware devices are modern except for the software."

Right. The most important part of using the hardware -- the software -- is not modern.

You're not emulating anything with non-modern software. You're not doing much of anything, tbh.
