I'm running enterprise on 3GHZ + 2GB ram and works just fine.

[Chrizz]

that's on the browser.

You don't understand. That's a huge feature for online marketing.

[Chrizz]

So?

The problem here is people thinks Amiga are still productive and have a future.. Amiga can have a future only if Microsoft or Apple will buy it.

Hi Chrizz,

Can you elaborate on your thoughts ? One line responses are not helping us to understand what you are trying to tell us.
You must understand that this is a site for people that still enjoy using old computers. Think nostalgia. Understand that our machines are 10-20 years old. Understand a PC of that age was consigned to the scrap heap 3 years after it was built.
The MicroSoft business model is based on making you buy a new PC by making the old one obsolete every time they make a new OS. Combine this with draconian DRM with more in the pipeline, and you may want to move away from it. I suggest you buy an Amiga. The guys here will assist you in your quest for enlightenment  :lol:

When Amiga was in fashion noone cared about computers. Computers have replaced TV, shops etc, you have to understand time has changed and Amiga is not able to deliver.

Marketing use? Get real, cool clips won't help push more Vista PC's. They're the only real OS supplier anyway and joe sixpacks isn't gonna buy a Mac/install Linux regardless.

That's under the browser. What will Amiga fans do when online shops like Amazon will start to use this kind of ui?
Complain that you can do on Amiga too? Yes maybe.. but Amiga doesn't even carry mozilla.
I have no problem with people using Amiga as nostalgia machines, I would probably set up one just for the fun of it.. but you must face the truth, Amiga is obsolete.

Ok I checked out the demo. It does look nice. However, using OpenGL I can wrap any video stream onto a 3D object. Add an audio mixer and we're on our way to replicating this thing.

Also, how is WPF - Windows Presentation Foundation (layer) an app?  :roll:

"killer application" is an economic concept.

Amazing! now my 68060 csppc Amiga runs circles around your machine in terms of multi tasking and boot time  :-D

Your machine does not deliver.
