I AM SO SICK OF THESE THREADS!!!!
What's the deal with all of these "If you 'd like to see (blank) support on an AmigaOne/Pegasos/whatever reply here" threads. I mean, doesn't this seem a little stupid to anyone else?
Why would someone NOT want support for as many popular and modern cards/cpus/RAM/whatever as possible so we can have the variety of choice to design our systems according to our specific needs and wants...Isn't this the point of using PCI and AGP busses in the first place instead of having onboard dedicated graphic and sound hardware??
Every time I see one of these questions I want to reply Yes, of course I do, Why the hell wouldn't I?? I understand we need to generate some response to show what particular hardware the community is more interested in seeing supported first, but trying to draw the line between Gforce support and other graphic cards is just dumb. Even if it's the only one we don't have, why wouldn't we want it, it's only the other top of the line GPU available today.
I can't imagine why anyone would want their OS to support only one chipset and not the other.
Do I want to see support for the G5 someday? Yes, do I want to see support for Gforce? Yes, Do I want USB, of course I do, do I want firewire and Serial ATA, no I'd rather we try to bring back MFM and RLL, I mean come on, these are really pointless threads, and it seems like we're getting more and more and more of them.
They're not even asking legitimate questions like "How soon should Hyperion/AmigaInc/Genesi/whoever start making the push to adopt AGP8x, or 64-bit processors, or something"
They're just 'If you'd like to see your new OS support a modern piece of hardware that is popular and available for pretty much every other computer system and quickly establishing itself as one of the industry standards reply here"
Maybe I'll start a thread to see who wants to see support for Logitech mice.
Then I'll start a seperate one for who wants to see support for Kensington mice.
