Whatever happened to the promised support for PowerUp? While people are discussing the meaning of "promise" and "support" I want to ask what the final outcome of MorphOS for PowerUP machines is. web archive (20030602171643) of www.morphos.net/support.php3. Was it ever promised? Not? Versions? Support? When? The mention of CSPPC and BlizzPPC was there for more than 3 years before it vanished when morphos.de/morphos.net became ..uhm.. genesized. :)

| Where is MorphOS for CSPPC? : Comment 13 of 78 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by Kolbjørn Barmen on 26-Jul-2004 15:23 GMT | In reply to Comment 11 (Anonymous):
I have no intention in buying a computer just to *test* the OS, I personally have no need for the horsepower of the G3 or G4 for running old amiga apps. I brought this up because it was something that was promised and supposed to happen for at least 3 years before it slowly and descrete was put on ice.. maybe. I cant remember to have seen any official "announcement" from the MorphOS developers about it either.
As for dead ends, the current Pegasos are just as much a dead end as the old amigas, in terms of feaures and support. It isn't quite what I want from a "new and modern" system (obsolete slow USB, obsolete PS/2 inteface, soon obsolete IDE controller, mediocre sound, unsupported firewire, unsopported floppy controller, and not enough PCI slots to compensate for all the mentioned flaws) |
