- Well, I don't think its appropriate to talk about the PC product in this
- newsgroup.
-
- But, since you brought it up, I can only say that it will be "different" from
- the Amiga version.
-
- As I've said before, the PC version is *NOT* a port of the Amiga code. Its
- all from scratch, home baked, new code. Heck, we even had to write our own
- software development tools to do it, and do it right.
-
- In any case, because a PC is, well... a PC, there will be an exponential
- increase in resources needed to perform as well as the Amiga version
- (i.e. 14 MHz 68020 vs 100 MHz 80486DX4 and 6 MB RAM vs 16 MB of RAM).
-
- You'll have to judge for yourself when it comes out (May 1st).
