Amijoe info is now on the amijoe website! It uses flash but it looks very professional.
An FAQ section show that there will be NO A2000, A3000 or A4000 version of the Amijoe....."we only spoke of an a1200 version"
The amijoe will due a bug in a memory/PCI bridge controller be available at the end of Q4 early Q1 2001
Specifications:
- G3 300Mhz or more
- 512kb or 1MB l2 cache running at 1/2 speed of the CPU
- 1 SO-DIMM slot for a maximum of 128MB
- 1 IDE connector for a HD (NOT master/slave capable so you can connect only 1 drive) -> elbox bring us a splitter!! :))
- 1 non direct PCI slot (need a PCI backplane to use PCI cards)
The 300Mhz version will B far less then 500 EURO

| Amijoe #4 : Comment 28 of 30 | ANN.lu |

Hi folks,
When I read that there would be no Amijoe for the A3000/A4000/A2000 it was very disheartening.
In fact I was really annoyed. I have been upgrading and saving for a PPC card
for my A3000 for a while now. All the previous announcements and comments had
included the A3000/A4000/A2000. Personally I think it's a bad move to not include them as it
leaves a fair sized portion of the Amiga market out of luck. This will also be
hard on the games developers as they now would loose a portion of their market. I
know I would be purchasing PPC games if I had an Amijoe.
But what can we do now??? I don't know if a poll would be much help. What we could
do is organize an email/snail mail/fax campain, to let Met@box know there is a strong
desire for an A3000/4000/A2000. Also we need to spread the word about this to other
news sites, mailing lists, news groups, get this info released into printed magazines, let the
companies the produce PPC software know, let the user groups know. The more people that know
will result in more people letting Met@box know that there is a need for a A3000/A4000/A2000
version and the more people who let Met@box know may increase the liklyhood of Met@box
changing their minds.
A new PPC card for the A3000/A4000/A2000 is important to the continued survival of these
models into the future. Let Met@box hear your voices. Let them know that there is
a market strong enough to support the Amijoe for the A3000/A4000/A2000.
