i noticed a new video on aminet:
http://www.aminet.net/pix/mpg/Pegasos.mpg
"This is a demo video of bPlan's Pegasos computer. The video has been created by Thendic-France to give an impression of how the machine runs."
the download is still in progress, but i'm sure it will finish to convince all amiga users thats the ppc amiga they are waiting since years is finally arrived

the next ppc amiga : Comment 28 of 359 | ANN.lu |
Posted by the man in the shadows on 19-May-2002 14:33 GMT | In reply to Comment 10 (Graham): > "that if they got one, they would make AmigaOS4 run on it."
I'm sure if Hyperion does have one and bPlan license AmigaOS4 extended bios/rom, that Hyperion would have no trouble writing the needed components for the Pegasos. It's unfortunate that I have extreme doubts in my mind that bPlan will license OS4 all thanks to the restrictions.
... I'm kind of curious why the background on the operating system took forever to load. On my 233MHz 604 I had a scaled image (from 1600x1200 down to 1024x768) display by the time two icons were on the screen under OS3.9.
... Since when did the Pegasos have the option to support G5 processors? Last time I checked it was only G3s and G4s with Dual processor support for LinuxPPC only. Perhaps this was an oversite by the narrator?
Maybe I'm trolling... maybe I just don't understand it enough to really comment... who knows. |
