Amiga Flame Editorial on PDA market for Amiga : Comment 5 of 7 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Don Cox on 17-Jun-2002 05:36 GMT | In reply to Comment 4 (Troels Ersking): "I think you are absolutely right about the need of an Amiga version of the SDK. I know it would probably not
have been worth doing for the 68K, but since the needed Intent stuff allready exists for PPC it would be
very clever of Amiga to release an Amiga version of the SDK with
AmigaOS 4. "
It would have been worth doing a 68k version. The PII would be much
the same as for the AmigaOne anyway (interfacing to P96/CGFX/AHI etc).
By the time OS 4 comes out, AI will have been in business for nearly 3
years. Quite a lot of programming by Amiga programmers could have been
done in that time.
Also, the exclusion of Amiga users from the program generated a lot of
bad feeling, which is still active. The message from Amiga Inc was the
same as from Gateway - "Your Amigas are a pile of old rubbish. We have
something new and shiny based on
QNX/Linux/Elate/Windows/Raspberry-with-Mango." |
