Is that kind of setup still usable for some kind of desktop computing or only for command line stuff ? 128MB RAM sounds huge for the early 90s - win 3.1 and word / excel of the time could fly with much less. Is the lack of hardware floating point support an issue to run modern apps ? The speed difference with current systems is mind boggling. The original A1200 CPU is 2,000 to 5,000 times slower than a random N100 setup. one second wait nowadays means one hour delay on the A1200. This shows how much software bloat accumulated. |

But there are otherwise thousands of X11 applications to run.
Yes, the bloat is unfathomable. Relative to how fast and clean AmigaOS and emuTOS are, on the same hardware.
