May i point out that all computers can be nightmares if you do not have a clue what you do ?

I'd also advise: ECS ---> OCS
I know the discussion might sound a bit anal, but the current situation is like categorizing all C=64 demos under C=128 as the latter is a seldomly used superset of the C=64.
When still in doubt, ask people with real amiga-knowledge, for example on #amicoders/#amigascne.

I support spin/abyss sugestion, just rename ECS to OCS, since no ECS-only prods are known at the moment.

hey atarians, let's open a thread to advocate the relabelling of the entire Atari ST archive to Atari STf!!!!1

yes you know it is necessary, otherwise some moron would probably misinterpret "ST", download some demo that doesn't run on his cartridge-only 260ST, and sue all our asses to timbuktu! (or something like that... *cough*)

Back in your box, Pandora! I already have to fight the evil Atari forces:

MadenMann: this was an STE demo, not ST, hence the "big" 3d (blitter) and the digiaudio quality.

I never used that argument because there is a much better one: real men like a challenge and thus went for PC while they left the amiga, which gave everything for free, to the boys ;-)

Flamewars between lovers of different computer platforms are quite boring & useless!

niels: you seem quite ignorant when it comes to amiga. the difference between ocs and aga is like the difference between a 386 and a 1ghz+ machine with a 3dcard in the pcworld. heck, to look at ocs demos on a aga amiga you need special emualtion-like programs!

if you think that gba and original gameboy should have their own categories, then this should as well.

There certainly insn't enough difference between OCS and ECS to warrant separate categories. How about calling it OCS/ECS and everybod will be happy?

So there are three Amiga categories:

Amiga OCS/ECS
Amiga AGA
Amiga PPC/RTG

and there will be no doubt what the categpries cover.

Blueberry: I second that. OCS/ECS is how it's written everywhere else I've bothered to look.

we dont need an ECS categorie :P there are no demos for that :P

just rename ECS to OCS -> PLEASE !!!

I usually don't say this but I think you're right.

*fills pipe with crack*

come to me, oh fluffy land...

jeh, i see water burning :)
I dunno. I think he was just admitting to not giving a toss about something that amiga people deem significant.

Amiga PPC should be placed togather with macdemos. *hides*
