Setting up WinUAE can be an extremely complex task, especially for users who are not tech affine. That's where Quickstart comes in: it will quickly get you going if all you want is to emulate a certain model of Amiga.
It is entirely optional.

Emulated Hardware

Model - Select the model of Amiga you want to emulate e.g. Amiga 500, 2000, 500+, 600, 1000, 1200, 3000, 4000, CD32, CDTV, Arcadia or Expanded UAE example configuration.
Configuration - Select the common types of Kickstart, chipset and memory configurations you require from this list. This list changes depending on the model of Amiga you selected.
