What max resolution you would prefer and what programs you would use with
this huge resolution?

Max resolution affects Hatari memory usage, so I'd rather have some
useful/reasonable limit for it.


Have you tested yet that TOS v3 and the apps actually work with it? :-)

For example Calamus 1.09 SL (1987) isn't stable with larger resolutions.
I think I also had problems 1991 demo of Calamus SE, whereas a demo of
2006 Atari version of Calamus doesn't work with only 14MB of RAM Hatari
supports.

I don't think any of Hatari developers has MagiC.

How the problems manifested?

Does't some MagiC version work also on 68000 machines?  If yes,
Does that version work with Hatari?

There's "supposed" to be PMMU support for some of the WinUAE's
cores which Laurent has stated to be working OK for 030, but
I couldn't even enable it... (See my mail from few minutes ago)
