THE WAR çddf,faa,afa,aaf,faf,ffa,aff «Amiga Or Pc ·---------------------- ¹The war between AMIGA and PC has been raging for many years now and it only got worse after the fall of ATARI. Now don't think im stupid or something just becoz i said the FALL of ATARI becoz... really! the atari is by all means a dead computer by now and should not be involved in this discussion. Well... the most common thing to argue about between AMIGA and PC owners is (ofcourse!) wich computer that rules the earth. Or wich one that has the best games and graphix and sound and so on. If you take a close look at a PC game, you'll probably find that comparing it to an AMIGA game would be a waste of time... the PC game is just that much BETTER! After comparing the two computers like that, the poor little soon-to-be-a -fooled-and-poor-guy hurries away to buy the computer of his dreams... the PC - 486! This is where it gets interesting. When he gets home and starts unpacking his dear PC, he will soon find out that all his dream games requires 8-fucking-mega- bytes-of-memory and at-least-a-33-mhz-processor PLUS!... a super vga graphix card and a soundblaster pro! Now that is the difference between AMIGA and PC. To run an AMIGA game you just have to buy a JOYSTICK and sometimes not even THAT! Ok! so now you are sitting there telling this file to die and burn in hell and things like that becoz you KNOW that the PC has better graphix and is much faster. Hmmm ¶where did i go wrong... oops, look at that price tag! The PC will probably cost around 7-8 times more than the AMIGA, and thats becoz of all the extra equipment! Let me take it this way. If you equipped an AMIGA for the same ammount of cash that you would lay down on the PC, you would be sitting with a super- computer! THAT'S NO LIE! You'll find out. I will now state an example. Microcosm. On the AMIGA CD-32 it runs terribly smooth... a real surprise if you have in mind that it only runs on 2-MEGS and a 14,7 Mhz processor! Now take a look at microcosm on the PC, it requires 8-MEGS of ram, a DUAL-SPEED CD-drive and AT LEAST a 33 Mhz processor! Still... it looks TACKY! Ok! so now you say -'Then how about ordinary games, action games and fighting games on the PC?'. Well, as a matter of fact they really REALLY SUXX... BIGTIME! Actually so is the fact for almost all demos on the PC. You see... the PC has'nt got any BLITTER, and that's what make action games on the AMIGA simply look BETTER! They scroll much more smoothly. And they dont require monster tech-specs from your computer.Next question: 'Then why ain't it comi'n games like DOOM for the AMIGA?'. answer: The Publishers of the games can't possibly make a game for the AMIGA that requires 8-MEGS of ram, a 33 Mhz processor and a BIG wallet! That's becoz HOTTED AMIGA's is far more rare than HOTTED PC's, and nobody want's to force an AMIGA user to empty his pockets AND all his bank accounts just to be able to play his favourite games! Enough of games, let's talk about working with the two computers! ¶THE AMIGA RULES AND THE PC SUXX! Ok! so i was kidding around but seriously, the DOS enviroment on the PC really saw it's better days in the early eighties! And WINDOWS can't possibly be compared to WORKBENCH. Windows is just too tricky and slow to be pleasant working with. And it's those little extra mouse clicks required that makes it feel old and since long forgotten. On the other hand, the PC get almost all the goodie word processors on the market and it has a very VERY wide ammount of programs for your office. When into working with graphix, there is nothing to talk about... the AMIGA rules SUPREME! So if your up to working with your computer... only buy a PC if you're running a BIG company or something becoz common users wont notice such a big difference between the word processors. And then again, the AMIGA is much CHEAPER. Here is my advice's... ²1:¾ If you're rich and want to buy a computer for gaming, buy a PC. ²2: ¾ If you like action games and smooth scrolling and if you like to KEEP your money, buy an AMIGA. ²3: ¾ If You don't care about money and want a computer to write on, buy a PC. ²4: ¾ If you want a computer to work with graphix on, or working with generally, buy an AMIGA. ²5: ¾ If you're a beginner with computers, buy an AMIGA.¹
