Giviīn up on the Atari, are we?
Oh, defected? Well, buy then
Thousands already did, so...
>if we want fast graphics,
>then what options are available to us?
Well there ARE certain GFX chips,
that can replace the VIDEL.
WITH maintained TOS compabtibility.
The main reason for the Falcs slow GFX isnīt
the Videl anyway.-Itīs the 16bit bus,promise.
(Try MagicmaC on a 040 MAC and watch it FLY!)
And who said it; pese cards were made to
work with x86 and nothing else? -Agreed!
Better let it stay in your intel box eh
>If we want good sound, the same goes...
>A Graphics card from a PC
Uh oh... I sure wuldnīt want THAT for sound ;)
Even the Falcon has a very good sound system
with the DSP & a couple of 16bit D/A - A/Dīs,
but Iīm looking at an even better soundsystem
with, say, an DSP302, and 8 separate outs...
Because I want/need that in my studio. :)
>We want anything, then what are our options?
Well, if you DONīT want it, no1 forces you.
But every option are there, just watch them!!
>You would not pay 50 grand for skoda when
>you could buy a chevvy for a tenner would you?
Nope, and thatīs just it! Why the heck pay
$2500 for a daily "dos" of chrashes, when
you can have a nice superfast TOS machine
for a tiny fractal of that price?!?
(I believe this IS atari.org, not pese.argh?)
OK, I know the Hades was icky expensive, but
it wasnīt even an Atari clone, -now was it?
Iīm beginnimg to see the problem here
We want it all but we donīt wanna pay for it
Is that it?
