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.

Amiga 2001 news update (updated) : Comment 44 of 69 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Sotiris Papageorgiou on 19-Nov-2001 08:33 GMT | If os4 is ported to sharkppc,pegaso,amione and every ppc hardware then hyperion will gain bigger user base for os4 so morphos team will have to do the same to wide-up their compatible hardware.
Well i believe that this is what we were dreaming of,a freedom of choice to choose the hardware you like without loosing your preffered os or have both of them and see which is more powerfull!
Well i fell more confident in hyperion as they seem very open to support every amiga-like attempt throught os4 and but do they have the time and resources to develop os4,ported to different hardware,develop games,bugfixing support to users and keep developing all their projects?I wish them my best and i will support them by buying their games for start |
