Report of the Alchimie 7 show
« on: November 10, 2007, 01:20:17 AM »
A report of the Alchimie 7 show is now available, in french,  on the Obligement's website :



http://obligement.free.fr/articles/alchimie7.php

Alchimie 7 was an alternative computing show held in Tain L'Hermitage (France) organized by the Triple A association. Highlights was the presentation of the MorphOS 2.0 status (lots of things to see), AmigaOS 4 Classic version (with photo of the box and the floppy disk), Amikit, Haiku, OpenSound, Deneb, Blender, Samantha & ACube, robots, etc.

It was a great show !

Note that OS4 was also shown running on a A4000 and it was possible to test it. The packaging is really professional : box, floppy disk, CDROM, printed manual, installer.

thats right, corto.
the only problem is the price of a cyberstorm ppc... more a gfx card. 1000 euros or so. maybe that shark ppc will be done.

but well -
it seems Amiga is back! :-D

cybernoid : I think it's a nonsense to buy such expensive hardware to run OS4. 1000 Euros is almost twice the price of a clean new Sam board with USB2, SATA, PCI, Ethernet, DDR RAM, ...

1000 Euros is more than a complete second hand AmigaOne in its box with peripherals ...

Thats right corto, and my 4000 with a pentium cooler on top of the 68040 still hangs after 1 hour on. Yellow screen - have to switch off. I dont know if it's because of my masobochi 8 meg card or if its still because of the cpu.

All I know is that I will never put my Amiga towerized...


So I completely agree with you about the samantha board.


I also I'm looking at the uae-integration on Aros. I'm very atempted to make a small donation to them. I think Aros can be some sort of Linux to Amiga. And thats very great. :-)

Don't know if this has already been posted, but I just found a vid from Alchemie 2007 on YouTube. It's of MorphOS 2.0 running on an Efika...
