- From AmiWest Banquest 2024 speech, Trevor Dickinson "What is the Amiga in 2024?" is its AmigaONE, Amiga PPC, Amiga Classic, Amiga Emulation, Amiga FPGA, Amiga inspired, just what is it?

I did speed up the video slightly, I wound'nt call it mickey mouse speeds. But I do understand some people might not like this, which is why I got a link to the original in description. I just wanted to speed up the speech slightly so more people have time to watch it as its a great overview of the crazy Amiga market and choices we have. it actually does sounded more speeded up than i intended. So Sorry for that.
Thanx I was really wondering what was wrong. will check the original.
Wish I was there! Love the Amigs!! From Australia.
Any group of developers who include the dog's signature inside their machine has the sort heart and soul that will endure.
Port Amiga OS to ARM, you will experience a wonderful comeback!
I met Trevor at the after party of Kickstart in the UK this year. Great bloke. Loved chatting to him at the top of the stairs at the bar :)
Recommended playback speed: 0.75.
Mickey Mouse mode at 1.0 :D
Right, what's up with the encoding? Was this a deliberate compression of the original speed or does he really talk that fast?
@@spelkult Could be considered an attempt at reducing a 45 minute talk to 30 minutes to save people some time, cus he was chortling a lot, taking pauses and such, but I don't mind those. :D
Thank you, I thought I was going crazy.

@@amigang Just a vaguely humorous way to say it's been sped up. :D
Huh.. One of the very few times the algorithm has shown me an interesting video in my feed (thumbs up) 👍
I think in times where technology has become so performant that it usually doesn't matter anymore which hardware you have because any hardware can do near anthigng relevant, the definition of what an Amiga is cannot be defined by hardware anymore, because this would be redundant. So it all comes down to the software, and of course primarily the OS. An OS that's very efficient, with advanved features but also very flexible yet easy and transparent to configure and maintain is what the Amiga always had .. and of course no sypyware, opposed to what has become standard nowdays.
If it doesn't have a Paula/Portia chip on the motherboard it is not an "Amiga"
From my experience Amiga emualtion still can not be done - sufficiently. Playing cycle precise is a requirement, because otherwise music and sound effects in many games will suffer terribly from picth bending/resampling. But with cycle precision enabled even the fastest PCs I tried have toruble keeping up the emulation speed without stuttering.
Great Talk
Cool video!
Isn't the PowerPC cpu pretty much dead and it was too expensive. I like that Apollo did further development of the 68k cpu but the FPGA is expensive and limits. I guess they can't afford to make an ASIC version of the 68k cpu; that would be interesting if it was done with 4-5nm process. What is the Amiga user population of 2024? Like 1-2 million?
Sorry I still don't know what an Amiga in 2024 is. Are they coming out with a PPC computer with an Amiga looking OS? And why does this guy sound like a British squirrel on crack? No offense. Love the enthusiasm.
Did you actually watch the video?
@@achaney he probably found the audio unbearable and stopped listening. It's unbelievably bad for a 2024 video.
Is this sped up?
Glad the audio sounds like shit to you too... It sounds like Trevors mouth is halfway underwater.
Try watching at 0.75 speed.
AROS of course :)
