Personally, I prefer nonsolid window movement, but this looks great regardless.


Preferences/GUI can disabled solid resize and movement.

Its just a recompilation of the currnt 68k version of P96 or its totally/partial new stuff?


This is largely a recompilation, although large parts of P96 have originally been written in 68k Assembler. These have been ported back to C. Some stuff is new/improved.

Was that build of OS4 likely to be without IDE DMA, out of interest?


To be honest, I dunno. I would guess it was using DMA, but I can't be sure.

It is very fast indeed, but the video seems to be faked.


Posted by a guy that used an anonymizer to hide his identity...

No, the video is not faked. Just compare the speed of Quake at the end of the Video - it runs at normal speed.
