While they mention that MOS is pre-installed there, I'm assuming they'll not be concentrating their efforts on MOS stuff. (that's to be expected of course from a linux distro).
So, while it is nice that Amiga-ish hardware finds it's way to people outside of the community, do you think that this is of any good for the Amiga platform in general? Or is it a sign that Amiga-like OSes just doesnt cut it for the 21st century?

Freescale donates 10 PegasosPPC machines to Gentoo developers : Comment 20 of 24 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Bla_head on 11-Oct-2004 20:24 GMT | You refer to the Pegasos as Amiga-ish hardware. There is nothing amiga about a
Peg or A1. They do not have any traditional amiga chipsets on them what so ever.
The so called new amiga offerings are nothing more than Draco PC's. Whats so
good about linux developements on these platforms ? It has very little benifit
to the amiga OS. |
