First I must say that I come from the days when computers (home) could be
programmed with as little as 3k of memory. Oh how the days change!
Anyway along this way, I became a mega Amiga nut.... It seems this idea just
will not die!
Recently a friend of mine (another Amiga nut), showed me an article in the a
paper here in Australia. Some of you might already be aware of this, however
I thought it appropriate to discuss the article further in here.
www.amiga.com and look up Amiga DE.
This seems if I read this right, is based on Java as an application meaning
across platform support. They are claiming (and I have no reason to doubt
it) that a developer writes one piece of code, and then this can run on any
machine running this software application. So this is nothing new, I know
that.
However as web develeopers, we see this happening. But lets look at it
further, we now have a new player in the game. This OS as you might call it,
can run under Linux, Windows 95/98/2000 and PDA's etc. The nifty thing is we
as a developer can begin to incoporate complete packages for web
development, we can deploy a solution that we can guarantee to run across
hardware, the software is no longer the killer. For example, our main web
site for a client can easily be dumped to a pda to be taken around were you
go. I see many potentials, as a developer the choices are narrowing towards
a common solution.
