I'm sorry, what? This is not your forum... In fact, you just signed up. I mean, writing an FAQ is fine, but... you don't define the rules of the forum...
Plus most of these are not questions that are "frequently asked."

By the way,
AriX, I tried to emulate the TV Guide Channel emulator, in E-UAE (for the Mac and Linux). Still the same options from

(NOTE: I am using Hi-Toro to make it)
And when I emulate it, it is very slow for me. WinUAE (for Windows) seems pretty like the real emulator.

Well, I would certainly not recommend emulating an emulator, but when I was setting up my Amiga emulator with Hi-Toro, I found that messing with the OpenGL and related graphics settings helped out a bit. Often they would cause things to start going too fast instead of too slow, but oh well. When I got my new MacBook Pro, which is much faster than my old computer, I found that everything worked pretty much perfectly no matter what settings I used.
