Ehm... No, but AOS4 now has an improved memory handler! Watch that AllocMem() fly like nothing before!

What is scary is that Doom runs better on an iPod than it does on an Amiga :-)

Finally there's a reason to by a naff iPod!

Still, too expensive just to be able to play Doom on the move.

This is possibly the stupidest thing I have ever seen, who the hell wants to play Doom on an AssPod?

Same reason people still use Amigas to browse the web or climb the Sagarmatha =).

Yea but... Doom!
Why is it always Doom, the first conversion you ever get for anything seems to be Doom, am I the only person who's sick and tired of Doom?  :-?

They were asking "who wants to play Doom on an Amiga?" in 1998, we were still happy to have it. I think the fact that it's one of the most significant games to have been open-sourced has a lot to do with it.

I'm actually quite intrigued as to how it handles with the clickwheel, it could be more intuitive than using the cursor keys to turn.

'Though to be fair, given the detriment to battery life that running Linux has on an iPod, I doubt I'd bother.
