Fleecy writes: AmigaOS4 will only run on hardware that conforms to the zico
specification - currently that is the Eyetech AmigaOne (which also offers full backwards compatibility with AA chipset access applications) and the bPlan AmigaOne, which will run AmigaOS4 apps and older apps which use retargetable coding. We look forwards to other Amiga hardware companies developing zico based solutions and are actively talking to them.

Explanations from Fleecy, part 2 : Comment 43 of 49 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Graham on 01-Apr-2001 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 37 (Anonymous): "benchmarked a G4 750Mhz against an Intel 1.5Mhz processor. Guess what they found?"
That a G4 750MHz running Photoshop on the Mac was faster than the PC? Software hand coded to take advantage of Altivec beat bog standard x86 code?
Benchmarks shayhkiedfmarks. Meaningless. You can always find a benchmark to say what you want it to say! |
