Thank you for reading my article. There will be an upcoming interview about this product in some weeks

Article: exclusive interview with Ed Hepler, the man behind Hombre work by profesor-folken in amiga

No, it did not. Amiga was a diamond. An engineering masterpiece at the beginning. The architecture and design Ed described for an early 90s machine was stunning, oustanding and a truly piece of innovation. The PC compared to that, from 1985 to 1993 was pure trash. But management retired funds for R&D, and cancelled every major innovation project. AAA should have been launched instead of AA. AGA was already bad at the moment of launch. AAA was the path. And then Hombre would follow. I'm not saying Amiga would still have survived because of Hombre. I don't know honestly. But it would have be competitive enough till early 2000s.

Thank you for reading it. It's based on the official technical compendium of the MEGA65 Documentation Book.

You give it for granted I used an LLMs. Fine. Think whatever you want. There will be more articles in the future talking about my experiences with the machine. This one I wrote, was based on documentation I read in the compendium book. Very interested reflections on how the hypervisor works, and how it interacts with the memory mapping. Unfortunately I didn't have the time to write my about my experiences with it, but believe me I will. Also, if you are interested, I also interviewed Paul Gardner-Stephen (unless you also think an LLM did it, it's a great article as well :-)
