Some news gathered from several sources attending the show.

A complete Pegasos-based computer system that will be on sale next year will cost approximately 1000 euro (~$900). The motherboards will also be available separately.

Hyperion and Haage & Partner are developing AmigaOS 4 with several other developers. New features include:

  • PPC native Picasso96
  • New Warp3D with "Matrox-, Permedia3- and Radeon1/2-support"
  • Generic PCI-drivers
  • USB-support
  • BlizzardPPC-support evaluated
  • Integrated 68k-emulation
  • PPC datatypes
  • Price: approximately the same as OS3.9
  • Initial release planned for February
Hyperion also told that they've been talking with both Elbox and BPlan and that they want to have versions of AmigaOS 4 for the SharkPPC and Pegasos.

In reply to Comment 1 (priest):
>"there will be versions of AmigaOS 4 for the SharkPPC and Pegasos" ???
This is not entirely true: What Ben said is that they will support as much PPC hardware as possible (and if the performance is satisfying)
They WANT to support the Pegasos although some ppl said they would prevent the Pegasos to run AmigaOS4.0
A version of AmigaOS4.0 for the SharkPPC is not really a supprise since Elbox an AmigaInc have an agreement for AmigaOS4 supporting AmigaOS according to this pressrelease of Elbox and AmigaInc:
11 April 2001
"Amiga Inc and Elbox working together for Amiga OS 4.0 and beyond"
