Kronos , you must be the single biggest f*ck wit in the community.

Since there is no talk about ExecSG on that show, and Warp wouldn't make sense (context switches), I would say 100% 68k.


The new Intuition, and RoadShow, &c., would be using 68k-based Exec?

I guess I can see it, it just seems more painful than using the supposedly complete ExecSG.

Maybe it's just been too long since I programmed Amiga & I'm confusing libraries.

1) Both RoadShow and the new Intuition have been developed on 68k. (RoadShow is even planned to be available this way)


Okay, that's a good point.

3) Even "nearly finished" is still unfinished.


Right, but he said ExecSG is "quite" finished. Or did you mean something else?

And what's the point of using a Cyberstorm PPC if it's 100% 68k. Doesn't make sense, unless they deliberately want to mislead. Do you agree? (I'm not saying you're saying they want to mislead, I'm saying that if it's 100% 68k and they boast of PPC then all I can figure is they're attempting to mislead & asking if you agree.)
