It demonstrates screendragging under OS4 (which has been impossible untill now under Amigas with a graphics card). Various screens are shifted around by dragging the title bar (classic style), including a fullscreen video player, the WB, personal paint, and some sort of demo/eycandy with pulsating cubes on a lower resolution. There's also music in the background.

Try getting vlc mediaplayer client from videolan.org (http://videolan.org)
Is free and comes with built in codecs for most formats.

Anyone know where one can be had for that price???

I can drag the screen on my CV64 3d. Will this not work on other classic Amiga graphics boards?

Post by: chipper701 on August 24, 2005, 05:10:53 PM: It reminds me alot of when I first saw the Amiga 1000 running. Multitasking was one of the Amiga's strengths and this shows it beautifuly.
