AFUA visited Thendic-France : Comment 49 of 629 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Tony Gore on 24-Apr-2002 22:20 GMT | In reply to Comment 42 (catohagen): "Would be a plus if this was possible....A1 owners need to replace the whole
machine for a G4 model later if needed..."
Well, not the _whole_ machine. Just the motherboard/cpu part. And that will probably cost no more than what bPlan charge for the "G4 CPU Card" if their pricing follows their heritage (not saying it will, and I hope it don't). By the time G4 support is fully implimented into OS4 (altivec stuff) there should be the Artica P chip which allows AGP4X modes, so AOne boards with G4's should also include AGP4X which would be useful in a motherboard upgrade anyways. Alot of us are stuck in the "wintel upgrade spiral" anyhow, so if I'm going to have to buy a new board every year or so, I would rather it be Amiga based hardware than Wintel.
To be quite honest, (even though I don't really care for RS and crew) I was excited to see the Pegasos coming along. I really do wish both sides would come up with a reasonalbe solution to this thing. The Pegasos looks like a good board, and honestly, I would probably buy it first just for the flexability. But I'm not going to throw away money on something that is not going to run what I want to use. If that means I have to buy AmigaOne to run OS4, then that's what I'll do, and I'll upgrade it when my needs increase or features of the next A1 meet a certain level. It's as simple as that. |
