The Null Device

The new Amiga slouches one step closer to world domination, with the release of the Amiga SDK. It costs US$99, runs on Linux/X, and consists of a virtual machine coupled with something called Taos and the obligatory chunky-looking widgets. In short, it's a funny-looking, proprietary "operating environment" with its own graphics window and command line, which supposedly will run on everything and take its rightful place as the Operating System Of The 21st Century™. Whilst it isn't native, it supposedly does run decently fast on a 200MHz machine with only 128Mb of RAM. As for running your old Amiga games, they're working on an emulator to do just that.
