Help HELP HELP

I'm suffering from Amithlon-overdose  :-D
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

That's cool as hell!  Any news on when it'll be available?  "Berniethlon" v2, that is.  ;-)

Nope. As you can read in the AmiWest transcripts and hear in the mp3 (the Q&A), the Picasso96 license is still not forthcoming AFAIK.

It may be that the P96 guys aren't prepared to grant a license until the various other licensing and IP issues are settled in court, in which case I have no idea what might happen.

However, although not yet confirmed, I believe the recent patches and drivers for Amithlon 1.0.1 may enable that to run Xine too. Take a look at the README for the patches and read between the lines about "future" software.
 :-)

This doesn't help if you don't already have Amithlon and there's no legal way of buying it.

Hmm... Exactly my problem.  I held off on buying it right away because it didn't support my network/sound.  Since then, I've heard the SB Live! works right now, and I had to switch network cards for a different reason, but there's no way to buy it.  Ugh.  Can I just send Bernie a check and have him send me a "pirated" version?  ;-)  If I get it illegally, I'd rather have HIM get the money, at least.  haha!

The SB Live! only works in v2. Although there's rumour of a driver having been developed for 1.0.1, it hasn't been released for some reason.

Ok... with that quote, you have given me the strength to wait for the real Version 2 to be released.  ;-)  Thanks for the infos!!
