'Merlancia Industries' Announces Startegic Alliance
with 'indiuvidual Computers'
Merlancia Industries is pleased to announce a strategic relationship
with 'individual Computers'; to
design a controller device that will be utilised on our Torro series systems.
The device, a custom chip controller, named 'CLeo' will be available
as an add-on kit for the Pilot release systems (to be included with all
systems shipping after it's release, and to be sent to all developer systems
sold before-hand).
The 'CLeo" custom device is based on technology first implemented in
individual Computers' 'CatWeasel' disc controller, and will allow the reading
and writing of Amiga native disc formats (880k and 1760k) on our Tsunami
system as well as future directives. Other formats will be supported as
well including PC-DOS, and Macintosh-HFS.
We expect to have a prototype of this design at AmiWest Conference (28th
to 29th July 2001- Sacramento, CA; USA) as well as our prototype Pilot
system.
