AFUA visited Thendic-France : Comment 486 of 629 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Frodon on 28-Apr-2002 09:24 GMT | In reply to Comment 483 (Samface): Hello,
Do you know the difference between an emulator and an APIs compatible layer???
There is a big difference. In the A/Box of MorphOS the only thing emulated is the 68k processor and the rest is natively rewritted APIs compatibles with the AMigaOS APIs. This is the same difference between WINE and VMWare for example. WINE is an Windows APIs compatible layer and VWMare is an PC emulator for Linux. And what do you think the name is WINE?? Because it means Wine Is Not an Emulator!
The A/Box of MorphOS is an AmigaOS APIs compatible layer and so is not an emulator and so it's totally different from UAE.
So all the discussion we had here about emulators and reading the original ROMs by emulator (which has been proven legal) is not applicable AT ALL to MorphOS. Please just go learn a little more how MorphOS work!!! There is no Amiga emulator on MorphOS!!! There is only a 68k emulator and a AmigaOS APIs compatibel layer which is NATIVE (and NOT emulated) rewritten APIs compatible with AmigaOS APIs.
