[News] Open Amiga transition plan | ANN.lu |
Posted on 11-Dec-2000 10:41 GMT by Teemu I. Yliselä | 5 comments View flat View list |
The recently quiet Open Amiga Foundation have set up a transition plan in order to keep the effort going. Steve Crietzman writes: "Following threats and intimidation from corporate bodies, I have decided that the effort involved in maintaining Open Amiga and the high degree of politics involved were becoming too much, and so for the last few months I have taken an extended break from Open Amiga and the Amiga community. My biggest regret in taking this action was that I simply just left, without explanation or with plans in place to allow for a transitional governing council to take over from where I left off. To correct this, we are now looking for candidates to form a transitional governing council for the Open Amiga Foundation." Read more here.

In an IRC conference (that was cut short by an attack from script kiddies...) today, Fleecy Moss stated that there's already 1.5 million orders placed for the Amiga DE. OS3.9 needs to sell 50000 copies in order to justify the development of a classic OS4. Earlier there was also a chat with an Elbox representative who, amongst other things, announced support for the AmigaDE running on the forthcoming SharkPPC boards. Amiga.org have the log from that.

[News] bPlan announce Pegasos | ANN.lu |
Posted on 09-Dec-2000 10:46 GMT by Teemu I. Yliselä | 9 comments View flat View list |
BPlan announce specs of their Pegasos PPC motherboard. They write: "By useing a modular system design, the mainboard could be easily user upgraded to the actual demands. With todays standard interfaces allready designed onto the PEGASOS mainboard, the users will be able to easily connect standard components (like harddrives or CD Roms) and a wide range of highend devices such as digital video cameras to the system. While PEGASOS itself is widely scaleable to the users needs, it's a easy task for retailers or OEMs to configure the system for there demands. By hiting the best price/performance point for the choiced configuration, systems starting with one CPU (at entrylevel) up to multi PPC G4 based cluster computers could be build useing the same hardware."
