...This is awful! So, OS5 is Amiga Anywhere.:-o
Maybe we should port all Amiga software to Java. At least it is real. :-x

A Inc should keep AA2 IP and let AmigaOS goes open source. I don't cara about AA2, I don't think it is revolutionary, and can't actually see how it could be useful for anything other than cell phone games.

I have a suggestion: let's change our "Get Boinged" bumper stickers to "Set Amiga Free". Maybe it works

Must take one hell of a powerful mobile phone to run Space Invaders


That's high technology that you mere mortal can't understand. :-D

You need a host OS that touches the hardware using a HAL, and over it you run an application that launches the Amiga Anywhere enviroment.

Then it launches AmigaOS 5 and abstracts the host system through another HAL. Now it is OK to run Space Invaders (simple, huh ?)

In order to have all these modern life commodities, of course you need a very powerful processor, and if Space Invaders runs slow, it means you need a faster cell phone.

How could you dare to run a complex app like this without all of these resources behind the scenes? Would you be crazy like all of those Atari 2600 users? This is why Atari died...    :-D  :-D  :-D

More and more I'm really convinced that if Amiga has a real future, it is AROS...
