- I know this has probably been discussed before but I would like to see some
- concise comments on the following:
-
- Will the new PowerAmiga be able to run WindowsNT?
- ------------------------------------------------
- I have heard it said that Windows95 is to be considered as a stepping stone
- to NT; that NT is not too bad an OS; that with the monopoly of the OS scene
- by Microsoft that major software house will be migrating to NT (eg OS/2
- being discontinued!)??
-
- If the PA can, will it be in a window (like shapeshifter)?
- ---------------------------------------------------------
- Please excuse me if this is a dumb question. I've heard the NT handles
- multiple OS's quite well, but I'm unsure how this fits together on one
- machine?
-
- Is it realistic to think that if the PA will run NT _and_ native Amiga
- software, that Amiga's will work their way into the professional realm
- again?
-
- Regards,
- PM
