Some sort of Win32 emulation built into the new AMigaNG OS, like WINE
on Linux would allow current business and other users to keep on using
thei old Windows95/98/NT sh*t whilst all around this software is new
Amiga applications popping up and out-doing the old PC stuff.
I'll admit that I see it very unlikely to be buying an AmigaNG unless
it offers emulation of the big software makret, ie.e the PC. So until
then I'm sticking to the 'classic' AMiga. It does everything I want
it to do currently. And it's not here I add it to my to-do list of
programming projects :)
Dinky do,
Mike Carter.
