I concede PCs are not in fact Devil's spawn..
« on: February 23, 2004, 07:45:55 PM »
I'd played with WinUAE/Amiga Forever in the past and never got it to run as fast as a real mig - even an 020. But last night I discovered the JIT settings etc. WOW! Now I can see why you guys use it - its cool to have Workbench in 1024 x 768 resolution and with a jpeg backdrop that doesn't use up all my CHIP ram. The few assembly progs I've written on my Amiga run at lightning speed on this 1.8Ghz laptop. And thats compared to my 060 Blizzard.
In short I always thought WinUAE was a crock  but I'm happy to find out I was wrong. (only weird thing is it makes beepy high pitched noises on this laptop when doing gfx operations?).
Big shout to the guys who wrote WinUAE. RESPEC!  :-D
