- I have seen discussions of the future for the amiga.
-
- Is it going to be PowerPc . or RISC or whatever.
-
- One thing I have interest in is all these new Power Consoles, the new
- game machines like PlayStation by Sony.
-
- Im just saying that the new Amiga might need some hardware like that.
- I was suprised that the PlayStation runs a 32bit risc main cpu at 33 mhz..
-
- Im hoping that some major improvement is made in the amigas Sound capabilities,
- nevermind if 8bit 4channel sounds good still.. but if the new amiga generation
- doesnt progress I will be ashamed to buy it.. . .
-
- Im also impressed again by PlayStation that it performs so well with a double
- spin cdrom?.. Having DSP helps It? well whatever it does stick it in TheAMIGA++
-
- I know this topic is quite worn out, but I want to post it here since replies
- dont stray off the subject , .... Wouldnt it be nice if ESCOM publised some
- high detail documents on the development, like day1 started proype,
- day2 succes in 32channel 16bit audio dma with 16x increase bandwidth
- day3 succesfuly modified operating system etc etc.
