Whereas the Amiga can scroll : Far better equiped ? Ok, if you compare that 66Mhz PC's to the 7Mhz AMIGA.... Regardless of of what the processor is, the PC is better equipped because of the way it stores graphics. :But even the 7Mhz version can do things your 66Mhz PC needs local bus etc. for. This is true, but you forget, I am an amiga user too. I'm just sick of people advocating a machine by spinning shit. : And if you make a comparison that makes sense, PC66 vs. A4000, the difference : is much smaller. An A4000 has the power to do a wolf3D =) Yes true. The A1200 even has the power to do wolf 3D, but a 16Mhz 386 (eqiv to the 16Mhz 020) would have to do less in order to do this that the 020. This is why the CD32 has the Chunky to Planar chip. This way, the 020 writes its data the same way the 386 would, and then the Chunky to planar chip converts it to the way the amiga wants the data. : |> the screen a lot easier than the pc can.
