But, since you brought it up, I can only say that it will be "different" from the Amiga version. As I've said before, the PC version is *NOT* a port of the Amiga code. Its all from scratch, home baked, new code. Heck, we even had to write our own software development tools to do it, and do it right. In any case, because a PC is, well... a PC, there will be an exponential increase in resources needed to perform as well as the Amiga version (i.e. 14 MHz 68020 vs 100 MHz 80486DX4 and 6 MB RAM vs 16 MB of RAM). You'll have to judge for yourself when it comes out (May 1st). Regards, John Chang ____ John Chang, Technical Support Manager, Scala, Inc.
