Eyetech Group Ltd have released a new
press release, with a
factual clarification of similarities and differences between the AmigaOne 1200 &
4000, the Predator, GRex and Mediator boards.
It has to be said that this is probably highly controversial material,
and that interested customers should also seek third party advice, especially
as far as Eyetech's opinion on the Mediator is concerned.

Eyetech clarify similarities and differences... : Comment 28 of 34 | ANN.lu |
Posted by ehaines on 04-Nov-2000 23:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 22 (Eagle One): : Yes I agree, but in the Mac, usually everything is write 100%
: "system-friendly", so things are easier :)
: So, I bet that on the Amiga some old game or demo that you love will
: fail to run on the 68k emul :) .
Those are the same old games and demos that break on things like AGA
machines and any OS version more recent than 1.3. Nothing to do with
68K emulation.
: "Just buy a second hand stock A1200
: or a very old A500 to run these stuff!" or "forget these shits!" No,
: I wanna keep running then, and from the HD and so on (whdload needs
: FASTRAM for most game fixes, so the stock A1200 or A500 don't fit
: here :) .
Whatever games are hacked to work with whdload should work with a 68K
emulator. After all, access to custom chips etc. is still there, so
it's not like UAE where the whole computer has to be emulated. (But
even there, UAE has a fairly high success rate last I heard.)
: But seriously, what else reason Elbox has to let your old
: 68k accelerator together in a full PCI/SharkPPC G3 system? :)
Good question. Marketing? If/when these things actually get released
we'll see how compatible they are...until then it's just speculation. |
