Title: Could this be the SharkPPC???
Post by: Acill on November 06, 2002, 02:03:34 AM
I got an email from a group I am in and this was found. It sure looks like it could be the SharkPPC Elbox is talking about releasing for some time now. What do you all think?

Looks more like a planar mount card for a 1U or some such variant.

Looks to be more like an AmigaOne or Pegasos on a card!

It is not the Shark, but it looks very cool :-)

Maybe OS4.0 could be adapted for this card ???

@mips
On cable you get as many channels as you want ( or are prepared to pay for :-D ), but if you got a standard antenna you get three channels ( SVT1 & 2 ( government controlled public service channel, ten times better than the commercial channels ) and TV4 ( commercial public service channel, mostly crap, since they were allowed to have commercial breaks in the middle of programs. ). In southern Sweden a few danish chanells are also availible ).

NOTE: Just because SVT1 & 2 are ten times better than any commercial swedish channel, that doesn't mean they don't suck! :-D

Lets get this topic back  on track. This PCI card uses the exact same northbridge chip as the AmigaOne and Pegasos boards. I've sent an email to Elbox asking about maybe licensing it or something. This could work for Mediator users if drivers are made for it man!!

No, that is the same card as Mai's Micro Server (http://mai.com/products/micro%20server.htm). Just like Eyetech, Inguard also distribute the Teron  boards ("Phoenix Development System" and "Dragon" rack servers).

The Shark is (based on?) a Mac accelerator card, from Sonnet IIRC.

It may not be the same  card used for the shark, but this one looks like it would do the job. Does anyone know anything more about these cards?
Title: Re: Could this be the SharkPPC???
Post by: whabang on November 06, 2002, 03:22:28 PM
If Eyetech and Bplan took MAI's board and developed it further, then Elbox could do the same thing.
That would explain why they are so sure that OS4 will run on it...
