I doubt a lot that a 3 GHZ pc running emulated 68k apps is faster than amigaone running native PPC apps


Well, does anyone have any speed comparisons or benchmarks?
How about a 68k emulated app on a 3 GHz or faster PC and it's native port on OS 4.0 or Morphos?

WinUAE is nice and all but I would never replace my A1 with AOS 4 to a PC with WinUAE. I've tried WinUAE on a PIV 2.4GHz and an AMD 2700+ and yes it was fast but not even close to how it feels using a real Amiga and limited to AOS 3.9.


I'd say that goes for most things. Which is better, a classic car kit or a real classic car?
Nothing beats the real thing, accept no immiations.

all the Amiga machines I have run  AmigaOS in one version or another on them and for me all they are Amigas.


Yeah, It's kind of like "What is a Real Mac?" Look at the original Mac and then sit a Modern Mac next to it.
