Amiga's homepage now features an Executive Update dated 03-Jun-2000. amigatainment, as the name suggests, seems to be a new section oriented towards entertainment software. A press release on the Amiga Software Developers Kit (SDK) is now also available. Then, there's a (large, but badly formatted) list of companies selling the kit. On a related note, it seems like Ted Wallingford is once again responsible for the site maintenance.

| Amiga adds new content to website : Comment 21 of 40 | ANN.lu |

Hi!
Just want to point out: If you do not have memory protection, you won't get
Virtual Memory... and Virtual Memory *is* required...
Just think about something like that... let's assume someone wants to port
Unreal Tournament or Quake 3 to the new Amiga... Unreal Tournament requires
on a Mac more than 100 MB *real* memory, even AS the Mac supports Virtual Memory.
Quake 3 requires (real+virtual memory) around 128 MB. Future titles might
require more maybe ? And games are just ONE sort of applications which
require Virtual memory...
We need Virtual memory, and I can't see how virtual memory should be possible
without Memory Protection...
I think they have to redo this decision.
