Linux is not AmigaOS, and LXF is also trying to reach a more professional audience
THanks god, Amiga os is better-well till the amigaos was used as a base for the new linux for the Itanium=Hombre clone so now that linux is true unix
due to it beign based on the best os amiga os3.92. 4.0 is just windos - so dont go there.%) There is true profesionlism . Oh and alot of amiga
users, till the hombre came out are in the linux communtiy -why not it was invented on an amiga and that version is still on the best version
well until now as described above. Pci express is the zorro 4 slot zorro 7 slot what every you want to call it. Oh by the way did you know whay no body
could make new amiga hardware.Intel owns the chipsets. Which is how the ITanum came about which at his point is 4 parisc chips in one -realt-time.
You wouldn't want LXF to use MacFormat or PC Format as a template, would you ?
But they are both very successful magazines in their own environment.
Template means as you should know various sections used -like programing as been asked bring that out and use it more often.
among other things.
Please explain how the Motorola 68000 series chips, on which the Amiga was based (IIRC), were multitasking in a way that x86 chips aren't ?
Surely with a single processor machine, it's the operating system that determines whether you get multitasking or not ? I thought that Linux
was conceived from the very beginning to be multitasking, like UNIX is. Hell, even Windoze claims to have (not very good) multitasking these days.
Man nigel , first linux ISNT Unix its linux well until now. ITs the whole setup motorola invetd the x86 archtiecture in 1947 and it hasnt changed since
True,smaller resitors. YOur competion Pcresource says in a prime example.
x86 single task -which also antoher bad point are 8bit layerd becuase its cheaper then the 16bit layered as they started off with on the 286.
ask your self this how does a anything multitask not unlike a care factory many people -robot arms do differnt things at the same time in real-time
no ibc(ibm compatible) waite states - which you loose real-time then and there. Truthfully on the human does true maultitasking and real-time.
The Amiga-Hombre is always compared to the human cell no other paltform is. Why the archteicture is the same - asymetric - this enables multitasking.
Of course the os helps. one bad doesnt make it good . Great os and great hardware make it period. Well micksoft redifiens things to make it look like
its doing it as you well know - or it tries to by out he other company so it cant say anything about it.
Besides if you dont know this...humm, you can go to any site worth anythign and they will say the same thing.
I'm sure Fedora Core 4 will turn up on the coverdisks soon - the other Fedora releases have. I don't understand what you are saying with regard to
SuSE Pro 3 (do you mean SuSE 9.3 Pro ?) and royalties. Please explain...
Well sell it, they dont want to give it away so when you put fedora core 4 and suse pro 3 or any newer version - sell it for -ie liek the
annual amiga special version -25 us dollars and suse gets wantever agreed % for allowing the full pro version on there.
- and spliting up the mag to 2 communitys would be a death trap. ie one games mag another profssional.
Just split the maginzs into sections - not unliek the latest amiga format heck if you want an interview by me email me back so you could put out a
special mag for 25 us dollars onthe new amiga and put old stuff and new stuff on 2 dvds. I could help .Its not retro as it has new amiga..Hombre stuff.
also.
If this doesn't help, I don't care - yeah thats your humor %)
as I think my better half got a shiny new PC around that time.
you think wrong that pc cant do half the stuff the amiga can. try putting a amd64 in an old amd motherboard or putting a new intel chip you cant-
simply put x86 archtiecture sucks even intel admits to it .Hum I can put a powerpc G4 on an Amiga 1000- hum it was done it was recorded in amazing amiga
and yours amiga format - i think.
There's 4 tutorials in the "AF Creative" section - one on getting onto the Internet, one on OctaMed (music software), one on Real3D (3D modelling) and finally one on Blitz, covering writing an HTML display program (aka web browser). 2 pages of programming in total.
There is an interesting 3 page article on getting NetBSD running on an Amiga... and 12 pages of games reviews !
If I get time later in the week I'll pull out a few more at random and see if the programming content was any higher.
See and yes there where many programming content ie the guy that won a contest from making photogentics off of the Amiga e contest. Oh yeah Paul.
