    This may be a "yes" or "no" type answer... guessing/speculation etc is ok.

    When MorphOS comes out for the Mini, will it run UAE (whatever current incarnation) as fast as a A500 with sound synced up properly? I'm assuming the Mini will have enough power for that?

    I'm hoping it would, but I'm also hoping that PPC JIT bounty would be set.

    Even a Pegasos with G3 could do it, so should the MacMini.

    "could" is the magic word indeed. I dare anyone to supply a .uaerc with settings that make "Hybris" (or "Battle Squadron") play fluently with sound and no frameskipping on the latest e-uae (I guess the one Fab did is). On a peg2/g4 :-)

    Ok, here are two, then. :)
    Note that you have to use the non-sdl version, which is quite faster (especially in overlay mode).
    Also note these config files are supplied in the archives (a500, a500-hires.conf, a1200.conf, a1200-hires.conf).

    With Hybris, this one requires about 65% cpu on a Peg2/G4

    Code:

    kickstart_rom_file=PROGDIR:kick13.rom
    immediate_blits=no
    cpu_type=68000
    gfx_width=320
    gfx_height=256
    gfx_lores=yes
    gfx_linemode=none
    gfx_center_horizontal=smart
    gfx_center_vertical=smart
    gfx_fullscreen_amiga=no
    gfx_fullscreen_picasso=no
    cpu_speed=real
    chipset=ecs
    fastmem_size=1
    chipmem_size=1
    floppy_speed=0
    joyport0=mouse
    joyport1=joy1
    amiga.screen_type = custom
    amiga.use_overlay = yes


    This one, doesn't use lowres mode and requires about 70% (always with hybris).

    Code:

    kickstart_rom_file=kick13.rom
    immediate_blits=no
    cpu_type=68000
    gfx_width=640
    gfx_height=256
    gfx_lores=no
    gfx_linemode=none
    gfx_center_horizontal=smart
    gfx_center_vertical=smart
    gfx_fullscreen_amiga=no
    gfx_fullscreen_picasso=no
    cpu_speed=real
    chipset=ecs
    fastmem_size=1
    chipmem_size=2
    floppy_speed=0
    joyport0=mouse
    joyport1=joy1
    amiga.screen_type = custom
    amiga.use_overlay = yes
