What are the hardware demands of AmigaOS?
AmigaOS is extremely efficient in regards of the amount of memory and computing time required. With only 1 or 2 MB RAM, you can already multitask several full-blown application programs without any noticeable delays. And the AmigaOS and typical applications need relatively little hard drive space as well! • Is AmigaOS a “Realtime OS”? Theoretically no, practically yes. For a so-called “realtime OS” you must be able to guarantee maximal reaction times after external signals. For AmigaOS such guarantees are not given, but on the other hand it’s so efficient and fast in reaction that it is already used in many realtime control applications in the industry. • Is AmigaOS “Object Oriented”? The Amiga Operating System was created in a time when “OO” was not yet a hype term. But it is state of the art and incorporates many ideas from object oriented design philosophies. This is one of the reasons why the OS is so compact, efficient, and simultaneously flexible. • Is the Amiga Operating System
