What is the best solution for resolution, speed & compatibility with applications/games? A bvision or a voodoo 3/4/5 + mediator?

Voodoo + Mediator will be faster with higher resolutions. As for compatiblity they are the same. Both BVision and Voodoo don't display AGA or ECS/OCS screens and they don't have a passthrough for these displays either.

Although if you have a BPPC, you will have definate native compatibility with both OS4 and MOS. Mediator 1200 will definately not be supported in MOS, at least.

It's an excellent demo, which require a 060+PPC+AHI+Permedia2.
It might run also with GREX + a cheap Permedia2 Pci video card.
For the EXEC :

Well, I don't think it needs 060... and did it even need AHI or did it use Paula directly... anyway it needs bppc and permedia2
There's some screenshots too:

It's incredible 64k intro. It's just massive amount of stuff in only 64 kilobytes. Three great trance audio tracks and speech synthesis and lots of effects
Blew everyone from their chairs when it was shown at the competition back then. One of the greatest moments of Amiga's newschool demoscene history
Beated PC intros of that time, even if you don't know the cpu power differences!
