The AmigaOne was presented in Leeuwarden today. Unfortunately, only openfirmware bios was shown. Photos of the presentation at http://www.amigascene.nl/nieuws/nieuws.htm .
At around 15.00 Computer City brought the AmigaOne motherboard. It is the first sample of the 1.0a board. Because the motherboard was different from the one that Eyetech had, it was not possible to use the Linux from the old board. Because there was no more time for a new installation, we had to do only with the openfirmware bios. There are installed a IBM processor (without cooling!), 128MB, Soundblaster soundcard and a ATi Radeon 7500 AGP.
It now waits for OS4.

The AmigaOne in Leeuwarden (photos) : Comment 29 of 122 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Eva on 26-May-2002 10:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 27 (Ben Hermans/Hyperion): I wanted to evitate any skirmish on this thread, but Hermans speach open ways to a new discussion.
At the end of May AmigaInc, Eyetech and Hyperion are not capable to show a mere alfa stage of the OS4 nor a decent AmigaOne prototype.
In October 2001 we at the AmigaPlanet in Italy saw an alpha version of MorphoOS runs on a alpha version of Pegasos, smooth and with a serious software like CandyFactory on an AGP FireGL videoBoard.
This is surely caused by the time that a developening require.
But It's not falsehood to say that the MorphOS-Pegasos combo will be released at least 6 months before any AmigaONe/Os4 combo.
It would be really a shame see a legal action that stops a step foward for the Amiga like world only to kill a competitor that in the last three years doesn't loose its time in futile debacle (like Elate, AmigaDE, emulators ...). |
