Actually E-UAE needs at least 2 things that I would enjoy:
- working CD-ROM support
- a way to spend less CPUtime when it is idle.

Well actually I spend a lot of time to transfer the
processing on my A4000 to the E-UAE on my Mac, where
I am writing this from. The A4000 (my best Amiga ever)
is now at it's end and will be retired soon.
