And the slowest possible "desktop" board will get us all those professional softwares?
This was the same on classics back in the early 90's. Most people bought A500/A600/1200. Most people didn't even upgrade the CPU. Those that did mostly went for 030. Because of that the professional software market never evolved. Every piece of software could still run on the slowest possible Amiga. Thus not pressing the features to become more advanced. I see the problem happening again. We have boards that are 4-5 times slower than a PC, why go back to 8-10 times slower?
Again this can't all be because the price? I mean Efika isn't really cheap is it? 299$ for its relative perfomance. Where are all the pro x86 people now that ALWAYS complained about A1's speed?
Again I stress the point that it's a GREAT board for embedded use. For which the board often has a single task to do and where its relatively slow CPU performance will suffice.
I think ACK is making PowerVixxen with that CPU because most classic user wouldn't have payed for a more expensive card. Simple as that. One other thing is that there's no better PowerPC SoC at this time.
You always hear that there's no point in getting better hardware because nothing will use it anyway. So if nobody gets better hardware then no more advanced software will be made. See the circle?
