A 600Mhz G3-SE from Eyetech should be fine for doing anything. Sheesh  my old Penitum 166Mhz I still run, and its fine doing everything.  I had a 16Mhz Machine (or was it 66)  a 486 chip, ran Windows 95 okey-dokey... considering I have windows 3.1 on the pentium, and even better running DR DOS... its very fast in actuality, only problems are slow CD and floppy drives. Anyone know if the Amiga Forever CD comes with a version for DOS? If it does I wanna buy it.

The Xbox has a many bit processor, I though it was 128 like other consoles out there...  you'd have to do a lot of really heavy work to port windows. Or are the processors stil 64 bti like the N64? Which doesn't seem right to me...
