I didn't know they were still selling the 68k models in 1995. I thought they had switched everything over to the m88k or MIPS models by then. > That was point... I thought... I think the point was from James: } So, as I said, you don't need a powerful processor just to run the X server. And James is right. You don't need a CPU that is powerful by 2006 standards to run the X server, at least not for "desktop" type apps. What I don't know is how much CPU will be needed for video. I don't have a handle on how much the OGC GPU will do and how much the CPU will have to do. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
