Gee,

The 6502 was in the C64 and the NES
The 65816 ("super" cpu) was in the accelerator and the SNES.
The Gamecube uses a PPC cpu like the Amiga accererators...

I say we carry on the tradition and port AROS and OS4 to the Wii!

Hey Amiga is not a successor to Commodore 8-bit.


Well so Commodore went all Sega Genesis/Megadrive 68000 on us for a while...but they eventually got back on track.

Interesting how this article calls the 6502 a Risc chip, lol.  Also, no mention of my GEOS 128!  Yes.  I had it and it blew away the C64 version.  Ofcourse the 128 shipped with Jane, and that was good enough for most people.

The remote(wand, Wii-mote) uses Bluetooth (wireless) send input to the Wii.  The Wii also has 802.11g built-in as well.  It offers 1024x768 or direct pointing resolution when you place the sensor bar infront of your screen and calibrate it.  So you've got a front SD card slot and 2 usb 2.0 ports in the back.  Quite a nifty device for ~$200US.
