Eyetech group have released an
article on their web site explaning
the new AmigaOne A1200 and A4000 PPC systems.
The system can actually run without the A1200/A4000 motherboard. The article explains all about the new systems and has a brief
history of the Eyetech Group. The A1200/A4000 motherboards are
an expansion of the AmigaOne, rather than the other way round
and will be able to run MorphOS or OS3.9 as well as AmigaDE
natively.

Eyetech give AmigaOne specification : Comment 24 of 27 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Mark Bowman on 24-Oct-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 15 (Ian): Well considering a G3/G4 is going to easily out perform a 603/604 at the same clock rate and current emu speeds are fairly decent 040'ish. Add to that the slowest G3/G4 available is 400 then speeds should surpass that of the 060 easily. The thing that slows down emu's anyway is the custom chip emulation whihc shouldn't be necessary in this case.
But aren't you really missing the point what is the point of getting a G3/G4 processor etc and using it to emulate a totally outdated platform. People really need to let go of the classic series and move on to something more current. But I guess new sw is not going to be too prevalent so emulation will be neceasrry until there is an acceptable level of performance.
However is people keep clinging ontop the classic and don't develop for the new env then all this discussion is basically pointless...the amiga will be truely dead |
