Subject: RE: Ideas on new Atari

Author: The Paranoid (dialin-212-144-215-246.arcor-ip.net) Date: 03-03-2005 20:44 The MMU in the Atari ST computer has nothing to do with what processors have on-chip today. It is a customchip that has been integrated with Glue and Blitter to the COMBEL in the STE as far as i recall and makes sure all DMA-chips get access to the bus when they require it. I agree that it is not necessary to provide all aspects of the hardware of an Atari ST - especially the MMU of the Atari ST is a device that is fully transparent to the software. However, if a "Super ST" is wanted, a certain degree of hardware compatibility is required. Otherwise you'll simply buy a cheap and ugly PC and run Aranym on it, which is just meant to do what you aim at: A certain level of TOS- compatibility on cheap up-to-date hardware. The Paranoid
