"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 42 of 359 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Ole-Egil Hvitmyren on 19-May-2002 15:20 GMT | In reply to Comment 37 (Anonymous): There is no "G5", or Motorola's site would be swamped with G5 commercials, not G4... The only doc for G5 chips you can find on their site is the 8540, which does NOT support the 60x bus, as far as I can tell (from their fact sheet). It does, however, have dual Gbit ethernet, 100Mbit ethernet, DDR-333 controller, PCI-X@133MHz and RapidIO. But the performance is "estimated", so I don't think they are shipping yet. The point? Wait another year, there might be a desktop version of the chip, but as it is now, it's got the northbridge on-die... And how the frell do you make a CPU slot like the peggy has when northbridge is on-die, eh? Right, you either don't, or do it badly ;) |
