- '>AGA is superior to SVGA (SVGA being 800x600x256c), and comes standard on
- '>the A1200 ($600 retail?).
-
- Why is SVGA just 800x600x256? Looking at a lot of SVGA graphics cards
- out there, there is also 1024x768x256 and 1280x1024x256. Not to mention
- the Hi-color and True-color ones at those resolutions. How is AGA superior?
- Where is the A1200 at $600 retail also? Its $699 around here with no HD and
- no monitor.
-
- [regarding PC games]
- '>Not as good as an A1200 (or an A4000!), which will soon have games that once
- '>again show who's game boss.
-
- Whats your definition of soon, next month, next year, next decade? All
- I see is software companies bailing out of the Amiga market. How can you
- have awesome Amiga games when you have no support? Granted, I am taking
- a US view of things, because what I see coming out of Europe doesn't really
- impress me. Its the same ol action/arcade stuff.
