Software we want ported to Amiga

[sicky]

@v643d

Here is my wishlist:

-InternetExplorer 7

What.... why? No thank you!

-Microsoft Office 2007

No thanks, Open Office, AbiWord or anything other than that thanks!

-Outlook Express

You really are a glutton for punishment aren't you? Why on earth would you want the worse e-mail client on ANY platform ported to the Amiga?

@Karlos

it's horribly resource hungry and crawls on machines with far more horsepower than any genuine 68K amiga has available

Who said anything about 68k machines, I assumed he was wanting to run these apps on PPC OS4 or maybe MorphOS?

@Varthall

If we're speaking of running these applications on Amigas, I agree, 68k versions would be pointless, only PPC native ones would have sense.

That was what I was pointing out, a 68k original Amiga wouldn't have the power to run such applications.

It might be interesting for those using Amithlon/WinUAE, though.

Yes agreed, here I have a PC running Amithlon sitting next to my G5 iMac and I must say that the Amithlon machine is very fast indeed. Makes me wonder what OS4 would be like if it were similar to Amithlon running on PC hardware? When Amithlon first came out I thought it was the right direction to go.....
