[comp.sys.amiga.games] Ultima 1-6 on Amiga and other computers

I have some questions about Ultima.  I would like to get all 6 Ultima's
for my Amiga but there are several problems.  The first 2 don't exist (the
Ultima trilogy has never been put on the Amiga as far as I can tell) and
I've heard very little good about the Amiga version of 5.  I have been
debating getting the software/hardware to make my Amiga compatible with
IBM, C64, Apple2 or something else and one of the things I would like to 
do is be able to run some other version of Ultima.  So, here's my questions:

  What is the best computer to play Ultima on?  I'd like specific reasons
like copy protection, sound, graphics, speed, etc. if possible.

  Second, has anyone played another computer's version of any of the
Ultimas on a compatible Amiga.  If so, I'd really like to know how it
went (ESPECIALLY if it didn't work or you had problems with it).  If
you were able to run the program with no problem, could you tell me what
software/hardware you used to make your Amiga compatible.


If I get enough responses, I'll post a summary since the Ultima series
seems to be pretty popular and gets a lot of inquiries.

Thanks in advance
