I don't know if the new machines have incompatible CPU slots or not, but it
seems odd that C='s own 040 board works only in the A3000T.  Funny thing is
I seem to recall Dave H. and others saying that the CPU slot was identical
to the one in the A3000.  Of course, I'm not about to spend $2k on an 040
board anyway.  Stupid me believed the C= guys when they talked about how
easy it would be to build an 040 board for the A3000 and that the prices
would be below $1000.  Ha!  They should switch to marketing as they would
do a better job suckering people into buying Amigas.

I don't consider him a fellow Amigan.  He is disruptive and selfish.
He signed up as certified developer as a means of feigning a form of
authority when he posts his speculations.  What he ought to do is
_develop_ something!  (Then, maybe, we could see how well he is
at marketing. :-)

Isn't that ridiculous?  Marc says CDTV is dead, some people get worried,
and some people at Commodore feel compelled to quell the ill-founded
rumor.  If he hadn't created the rumor, there would be no need to disspell
it.  And why do you assume that information about AmigaVision had anything
to do with -MB-'s posts?

>Mm... no offense Marc, why don't you post another article, and proclaim

Newsflash!  As of Monday, August 3, all development on Marc Barrett V0.02
has been halted.  They haven't accepted support calls on V0.01 for a long
time.  They've fired all the developers.  (I even heard they were working
on a conscience and a sense of humility for the next release, but I guess
that was all just wishful thinking.)  I've often posted about features in
other whinerware that have been missing in MB, but all such requests have
fallen on deaf ears.  Now MB is officially dead!  It is a sad day.

>just kidding.

Well, Kelvin.  Which is it?  Are you just kidding, or are you sincere?  :-)

>PS: -MB- I admire your courage!!!

No.  -MB- is a coward.  If he had any courage, he would retract the
posts that were significantly wrong and admit he made a mistake.  He
would not continue to try to defend the posts by looking for any
nits that might be interpreted to support some insignificant portion
of a post whose main points were fabricated from vapor.

Having a games BIOS would be the worst thing to do.. It doubles the task
for any hardware manufacturer.. and it would be used (with all its disadvantages)
by other programmers as well. And the result would be just to please game
programmers to continue their egocentric programming style ?
BTW, do you think that HD installable games on MS-DOS use the BIOS to access
the HD ?

How can you become a registered developer for $20?  Its more like $100, at
least for the first time.  The native developer's kit is $20 and that give
you includes and code examples, but it doesn't make you a registered
developer (and don't you still have to buy it to get the includes, even if
you do register? -- I can't remember and I don't have my literature from
Commodore handy).
I think most people that fork out the money to become registered developers
and don't produce code just do it to get inside information.  I don't see
why they spend the money when they can't get all the info from courages,
respectable, honest people like Marc (please read last line with proper amount

This is really ominous.  It sounds like they've dropped one of the

No, the Falcon's Blitter is a new 32 bit design. The ST's was only 16 bit.

Multi*TOS* is certainly not Unix. But it provides the same level of multi-
tasking control as Unix. Most BSD system calls exist in the same form, although
the weird DOSish PExec calls had to be preserved. This means that there are
about two dozen different ways to spawn a program now, oh joy. (Actually, it's
really not that bad, there are good reasons for each of the available modes,
really.)

Oh, so what you're saying is that I can't get any reliable
information from this group because no one is telling the truth!
I strongly disagree.  This group certainly talks about emotional
issues and I'm certainly not saying that this group should be all
factual :) But if all this group does is namecall each other with
no factual *basis* to their posting, then what good is it?  I have
seen posters submit articles which were well thought out even if
they had an emotional slant to them.  I read this newsgroup
because of them.  And I feel sad when I see a poster tell about
their experience and get immediately called a liar, etc without
any thought whatsoever.  Perhaps you enjoy this, but I wonder how
you feel when you're on the other end?

Some might consider this to be a disadvantage. :-)

Yeah.  How about a standard script language that developers could rely on
being on all machines with OS/2?  The existing command line interface seems
to be mostly a rehash of MS-DOS's.

Curiously, IBM recently put some IBM PS/2s in a lab here, but they did not
include the new versions of the operating systems.  Go figure.

Well, maybe, maybe not.  If you're running Solaris or maybe OS/2 or Windows NT,
you might have a claim against MacOS or AmigaOS on the '040, and you would 
certainly have a claim against A/UX or Amiga UNIX.  On the other hand, if 
you're running MS-DOS, Windows, or any other basically 16-bit OS, you're taking
a major league performance hit trying to do the same things 32-bit OSs do
naturally.  The '486 may make this kind of thing usable, but it doesn't make
it fast.  That's more than likely why those Mac application benchmarks came 
out so good against fast '486 machines.  Artifical benchmarks on either platform
more than likely try to target the host CPU directly (eg, you'd use 32-bit 
loaders and -486 switches on the MS-DOS version of Dhrystone, versus probably
-030 switches on the Mac or Amiga version of Dhrystone, no '040 optimized 
compilers are on the Amiga yet at least).  With real programs, you have to use
what's really available.  In time it may change, but in time, you'll be able
to get faster hardware too.

Why, did I state that it's a great failure and missing feature of AmigaOS that
it cannot run OS/2 applications?  You know damn well what the point is, Peter.
OS/2 supports binaries created for two *other* OS's, and AmigaOS doesn't.  I'm
not saying it's a tremendous advantage, it's just one reason why OS/2 is bigger
that AmigaOS.  This support, by the way, doesn't have to be installed.
