@Akira - well it is a system solution. It doesn't mean it has to be. It is that way because you can use system devices with their (already present) drivers and - eventually - "forward them" to AmigaOS one way or another. With custom solution and baremetal it's nearly impossible for a few enthusiast developers to get on-die peripherals working under AOS. Especially GPU or USB part - which indeed is Achilles' heel of many amiga related projects anyway. Even Warp limits usb functionality to mass storage and hid. Same with Vampire. And both accelerate only basic 2D with no 3D whatsoever (well, Vampire team might give some but I doubt it will make much of a difference, I find it hard to believe they'll squeeze enough room inside already existing v2 and v4 to hold any decent 3D accelerating engine). Besides - most 3D accelerated titles for amiga are ports from PC anyway.
