Amiga-news.de has posted Martin Baute's report from Bill McEwen's keynote speech at the World of Alternatives show in Neuss, Germany. Amongst other things, McEwen announces the development of the AmigaOne desktop computer, talks about a (apparently) working prototype of a Gameboy Color-style game machine developed in-house at Amiga and running Amie, and hints at a new recruit to their team who comes from a "large company in trouble".

McEwen gives a keynote speech in Germany : Comment 28 of 29 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Tony Gore on 14-Jun-2000 22:00 GMT | The way I understand it, PSX2 and Dreamcast load the OS from the game cd when you put it in. That means that if there is a new and better OS to use that sports new tricks not possible with the old one, they could change it on the fly and end users would be none the wiser. Can anyone say "Plug in the Amiverse CD and start surfing the web on your PSX2 or Dreamcast?" That's what I think. It would have a browser and such, you could download MP3's and play back on your RIO player, etc... Just my thoughts... Kinda like turning your game console into a desktop with the switch of a CD. |
