Are we sure this is the right company?
Varisys hasn't been around for 15 years.

Yeah, he was a hoot. In a kind of disturbing and scary way. Someone who really went off their meds, it would seem.

He did have a webpage once. It might be on archive.org, but I can't remember what it was called.

Varisys are also known for producing PA Semi processor boards.


...and in combination with XMOS stuff. IIRC someone at some forum guessed it was them a long time ago already because of this reason? So now it's confirmed...
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

It's only a joke if you don't take it seriously.

PA6T was my first wild guess, but it didn't seem likely given that PASemi were bought by apple.

Wait, you mean someone guessed at Varisys, right?

Great point!!!

At the risk of remaining off-topic, I just had a scary thought. Shaun was going on about Zorro VII in 2002. Then he went mental when the A1 specs were announced with it's mongrel PCI/AGP slots and not Zorro VII. He must have gone through some design iterations by now. Assuming he didn't top himself, that is. I mused to myself "perhaps he's up to Zorro X by now". Then it hit me: Zorro X / Xorro. The X1000 has a "Xorro" slot and the XMOS chip has "DIRECT ACCESS" to it...

:nervous:

Nope.  Maybe HyperionMP meant this company:

A3000D (16mhz, 2MB Chip, 4MB Fast, SCSI (300+MB), SuperGen Genlock, Kick 3.1)
Back in my day, we didn\'t have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we\'d just have to shove them together.

I guess this what Doomy and HyperionMP would serve at their wedding?
