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 8 of 33 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by XDelusion on 14-Feb-2000 23:00 GMT | I thought Amiga's best possible future would stem from Transmeta, but then I realized that Amiga is in bed with the company who offers us this!!!!
http://www.tao-group.com/2/tao/index.html
Besides maybe Transmeta will change there mind...
Time will tell, though I really want Amiga OS on my PeeSea RIGHT NOW!!!
Sorry, but hey guys, were kinda in shit creek, pardon the fench. Something really imaginary, needed, and inovative needs to come from Amiga/Transmeta if there is ever going to be a hope in hell.
If all else fails, I will stick with A dual (or more) processor based IBM, or standard PeeSea mother board, running Linux, with VMWare assigning independent CPU's for the OS's I will be running in the X enviroment.
Like Amiga OS, it has a GUI, it has CLI, it has Multi-Screens, It has a form of MUI, ect. ect. For me, it is the closest thing to Amiga I have got. And if this amiga business fails, I hope someone makes an Amiga OS based X enviroment for me. |
