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.

I find it surprising that you'd consider Turrican to be in the Pegasos/MorhpOS camp since he has often spoken similarily of Pegasos as well. You are jumping to conclusions here.
No side is perfect. Both are throwing plenty of mud, and both have some very sensible and talented people in them. Some might even count Amiga's unproven claims about MorphOS similarily wrong as well, or Ben Hermans comments about the order status of parts for Pegasos as such mud-throwing as well, or Ralph Schmidts earlier comments or whatever...
I'm willing to keep an open mind both ways. You do not seem to be, since any negative commentary on AmigaOne is automatically assumed to come from That Other Camp. |
