As many of us already understood, the G3 based "supercomputer" to which CoyoteFlux referred in their interview was a bPlan Pegasos. They've got some more infos at THENDIC-France.

| Thendic France announce worldwide Pegasos reseller program : Comment 11 of 70 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by ground zero on 12-Apr-2002 11:16 GMT | I'm really sceptic about this news. I do not know rakesh nor bill buck personally, but this news sounds like the typical "boxer is coming soon" hyping we see alot in the amiga industry. I'm sure these people have a vision and dream what they want to accomplish but getting the finance, finding the recources and means and most of all the determination to pull something as big as this project to the finish line, just sounds too unbelievable to me.
I mean companies such as AI, Hyperion, Eyetech etc. are having a really hard time coping with their projects (which sound technically less demanding than getting a powerhungry g4 and its mobo to fit into someones pocket) How could a 2 man development team accomplish something like this in less than a thousand years?
Especially when considering that none of the bigboys (sony, motorola, ibm etc.) haven't been able/willing to do something like this. I'm sure they would also like to see g4 processing power on a handheld. Heck anyone would be interested in that.
Anyway projects in amiga world usually get scrapped before they are even halfway thru and It's just a very big plan to do something like this, so pls forgive me if I'm being sceptical. I do wish all the best for a project like this and it would be great to see an amiga'ish handheld out there. Maybe there is a typing error or something and they meant a pegasos laptop rather than a handheld. |
