Interview with Ben Hermans from Hyperion : Comment 181 of 194 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Kay Are Ulvestad on 09-Nov-2001 07:09 GMT | In reply to Comment 173 (Brecht): >I apologise... I always am pissed when someone does the same to me, but I sometimes forget that. :/
-
It's ok, I'm not one to bear a grudge. :-)
-
>I meant that PPC is a dead-end for AmigaOS in this situation.
-
Ah, that makes more sense (although I still don't agree). Well, I'll be happy
just to get away from 68k...
-
>No. It's not about the architecture of x86, it's because x86 is mainstream and
>cheap, and that you *can* multiboot. A custom AOS-only x86 board is the exact
>oppisye.
-
It would still be mainstream and cheap...but ok, I haven't given this one much
thought. I just thought it was refreshing to see something new being suggested.
-
>I'd go for both a PPC and x86 OS. Providing developers with a common API (endianess
>problems wiltered out by the Amithlon compiler?), a cross-compiler and some
>guidelines to make both x86 and PPC executables.
-
Might just be the best thing, although I'd rather see just a PPC OS first.
-
>Was that ok? :)
-
Yes, that beats "ROFL" quite easily. ;-)
