Black Hand says he repeatedly mailed Transmeta to enquire about 68k emulation support, or the posibility to access and modifiy the morphing code. Here's what Frank Priscaro replied: Supporting the Amiga was something that we considered early on, but had to drop because all of our resources needed to be focused on the Linux and x86 markets. We have no plans at this time to support the 68K family of processors.

Transmeta don't plan 68k support : Comment 18 of 33 | ANN.lu |

Forget the dual processors, that is old hat. The Amiga/Elate system is multi-processor,
as in Transputer. The more CPU's you tie in the more powerful the Amiga becomes. In
theory, you could have the equivalent of a 10 Ghz. or even 100 Ghz., or more CPU running
in your Amiga. Assuming Amiga corp succeeds with their plans :) |
