oAESis is surprisingly good, basically it just needs to cleaned up. It's
been a long time since I tested it, but apart from some missing features
it worked quite well. My biggest problem was the VDI-initialisation, it
was hard to get it to work properly in odd resolutions on my Falcon. I
haven't even tested it on my graphics-card.

I never could get the later versions of XaAES to work on my Falcon, so I
really don't know how good it is. It looks a bit peculiar though, and I
for one is not very happy with it's Win95-look.
