- I have heard roomers about being able to run WB3 on pre-aga systems and that CBM
- had re-written all of the graphics code to make graphic operations on these ECS
- machines faster.
-
- First of all, is this true?
-
- If so, does it just speed up things like Animations, or painting programs, or
- intuition windows, or any graphic operation whatsoever? This is of course
- under the assumption that anything the Amiga displays is graphic.
-
- Second, whats the likelyhood(sp?) of CBM actually releasing this as an upgrade
- to 2.1?
-
- If they do, would it include a new SuperKickStart for my A3000? I don't want to
- have to change any chips... I like my A3000 to be able to upgrade OS without
- having to buy a new chip every time.
