I have news that Elena Novaretti, author of good software programs such as ZoneXplorer and Power Icons (and a known Pegasos fan and owner) is also present at Webbit Padova with a Pegasos II kindly furnished by Pegasos Italia just for the exhibition event.
We expect soon impressions of Webbit show from Elena, and news about the impact which Peggy II made to italian public.
Wow!!!
After 10 years of absence to important events here in Italy, two Amiga based platforms are there!
More! I have news that the booth by Virtual Works, Ikir Sector, Soft3, Bitplane (with partecipation by Eyetech, ZetaOS and Cloanto people) IS A DOUBLE-SIZE booth.
Very impressive.
And more, seems that (basing upon Ikir statements on the web), there are two Pegasos at Amiga booth...
Amiga has a Very Very strong presence and a lots of opportunities to impact the public at Webbit Italy.
Good news for our beloved platform.

Elena Novaretti (ZoneXplorer - PowerIcons) is present with a Peggy II at WEBBIT : Comment 47 of 49 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Kjetil on 11-May-2004 18:26 GMT | In reply to Comment 36 (Sigbjørn Skjæret): Álmos Rajnai:
a task based emulation: each emulated task has it's own emulation process independently from the others, with escaping trough the so called emulation-traps at each system calls to the native code. The emulation in AmigaOS4 is working roughly with this method, except that there is an MMU-based 68k code identifying used instead of usual emulation-trapping, thus increasing the switching speed, lowering the memory requirements and simplifying the 68k code patching mechanism.
Why is it good for us? There is no need for virtualization of resources, no delay until building a complex sandbox-mechanism, each task has it's own interpretation/translation state, no interferences. The rest of the system can work on full speed, because it is mostly native PowerPC code, and every task scheduled individually. (Keeping the usual Amiga-feeling in feedback and working.)
When will the emulation be ready?
Soon... ;) Technically the emulation is ready. Converting from WarpOS to AmigaOS4 took more time, than we expected, but it is done. We are working on bug fixing and integration into the AmigaOS4. I cannot tell you more precise interval.
