And you are probably right. I do not know, nor particularly care, whether the L3 cache gives 3% or 15%. Neither is particularly significant. I am merely pointing out that several comments here have been written with the unspoken assumption that the AOne must be inferior because it is an AOne. Using the pyschology of speaking as if something is true beyond the need to even mention it is quite an effective way of getting people to subconciously believe the things you want them to.
And before anyone starts on the subject, I'm not an "Amiga zealot". I'd be making similar comments about the Pegasos were it under discussion. Which I note that nobody has yet tried to claim is better in this thread. Yet. |
