| My dream machine when I was young: -CPU: two MC68000 cpus, at least at 8 MHz. -Audio: Z80 sound processor, 1 MB sound memory, Yamaha sound co-processor, 8 channels of stereo sound at 24 KHz. -Video: 320x240 to 1280x960, 2/4/8/16-bit color, hardware 3d vector and texturing unit, up to 4096 triangles per frame at 60 frames per second. -Memory: at least 16 MB RAM. Storage: floppy/cd/scsi hard disk. -O/S: Amiga-like UI, unix-like under the hood, multitasking, multiuser. Standard peripherals: keyboard, 3-button mouse, 8-button joystick (2 ports). Programming: C-like language with enhanced type system, additional functional and object-oriented features. Actually, I didn't know about this stuff then, so it's a recent addition :-). Games: ports of every arcade game up to 1995 :-)... of course, anything else is welcomed :-). |
