I have news that Elena Novaretti, author of good software programs such as ZoneXplorer and Power Icons (and a known Pegasos fan and owner) is also present at Webbit Padova with a Pegasos II kindly furnished by Pegasos Italia just for the exhibition event.
We expect soon impressions of Webbit show from Elena, and news about the impact which Peggy II made to italian public.
Wow!!!
After 10 years of absence to important events here in Italy, two Amiga based platforms are there!
More! I have news that the booth by Virtual Works, Ikir Sector, Soft3, Bitplane (with partecipation by Eyetech, ZetaOS and Cloanto people) IS A DOUBLE-SIZE booth.
Very impressive.
And more, seems that (basing upon Ikir statements on the web), there are two Pegasos at Amiga booth...
Amiga has a Very Very strong presence and a lots of opportunities to impact the public at Webbit Italy.
Good news for our beloved platform.

@Kjetil
Could you atleast for once try to stop babbling bout stuff you don't understand ???
What an extremely good argument, you most be clever
Yes OS4.x will have to provide some wrapper around exec-functions since you can't run a design like exec on a MP-system. And if you want to have that new kernel to be protected from OS1-4.0-apps, than they will do it in a boxed way.
AmigaOS3.x will not write randomly to any memory address, and if you find on that do then that has a bug, if you have program that hacks innto OS structures, then that is called a patch, or a virus, spy ware, that type of behavor is not some ting you like have inn a new system,
the behavor of 68k programs is that they give away pointers to address whit inn it slef program, not allocated trow by using shard memmory, it is that memmory are that can not be protected,
The legacy box in OSX or XP is NOT what causes them it to be slow, there still slow when you run SW compiled for OSX or XP ....
well yes if you have program running inn the background using all up all your CPU, there be nothing left for your software compiled for OSX or XP.
Passing some arguments trough one layer will cost just a handfull of cycles per call, wouldn't be suprised if a heavy MMU-setup would cost much more performance.
this CPU cycles will be multiplied by the number of times they are executed whit inn a task switch, given that you may have many programs whit inn your box, and that the box need to check for external and internal IPC communication, you lose lots of time,
and MMU setup will ONLY use CPU when an exception is triggered, and when you need to change the vector table,
exception will only accrue when an task is doing some thing illegal.
MOS0.4 was released in 2001, and yes it did use parts of AOS3.x (on a binary level). Nothing wrong with that as MOS0.4 ONLY runs on Amigas with OS3.x installed ..
Nothing wrong unless the software is pirated.
Ambient wasn't created with "haste", it was created because a new desktop would have been needed anways.
My impression is that is where crated whit haste, quite blither tone just before it where created.
So:
Could you atleast for once try to stop babbling bout stuff you don't understand ???
What an extremely good argument, you most be clever. |
