So they have 'co-processors', like the Amiga, but on a chip!
Recall, this is what made the Amiga such a groundbreaking computer back in the 80s and early 90s: separate co-processors that handled graphics, sound, DMA, IO,...
It worked (for a while) because the Amiga was an integrated system of hardware-and-OS - exactly like Apple. Unlike the MS-DOS and Windows PCs of the time, there was no need to support third-party hardware.
Together with a really nice OS, the platform encouraged creativity and gave rise to a generation of coders, artists, and musicians.
So everyone: now you know what it felt like when the Amiga first appeared on the home computing scene!
