As for game vs desktop, it's just semantics. Look at how many arcade units used 68000 and Z80. Both found on desktops. The Amiga started life intended for games and it's the neatest computer I've yet to see.
The industry has changed since the Amiga... In the begining games were just like normal desktop applications with pretty graphics (very linear with simple logic puzzles)... now games are a totally different breed of software (usually complex simulations, with advanced physics and 3d representations), pretty much unrelated to desktop applications.
You are true today games are different.Today games are the most complex and demanding task that a computer can run.In fact when you run a 3d game you are running all the posible desktop apps in one (music, graphics, 3d, internet.....) .
Or what desktop app do you know that need the requirements of any modern game?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sincerely i don´t understand the people that says that is not suitable for desktop!! my only logical explication is that that people only always like to disagree
