- Note that this issue has not hit the streets yet, I don't think.
-
- The article said that the Amiga has an 8-bit core. Perhaps this makes
- a difference? Even I was under the impression that only 3.x was true
- 32-bit. Perhaps he wanted 1.4? It might make more sense as they
- already have a form of basic for it.
-
- The idea is that smaller bits mean faster through-put for raw data.
- Amiga OS also truly multitasks in 512k which is something even the
- smallest Windows cannot do.
-
- Also, the article called it a backup OS for their project.
-
- Just read it when it comes out.
