It allows you to partition your hard drive with a Mac partition. Very slick. Although no color support yet, they have just added sound support. A stock Amiga 2000 running AMAX (the software) runs a bit faster than an old SE. An Amiga 3000 ('030, 25Mhz) cannot run many of the games that run on a Mac simply because due to processor speed, the games move too fast to be played (What a slap in the face to Mac people) If there exists an emulator for the Amiga, and the Sparc, there will almost definately be one for the Next.
