The PowerAmiga short storie
Amiga One is the PowerAmiga computer that's built arround two proccesors, the one fatter - Fatso, and the other slimmer - Slimmer. These two run *fine* without any PPC proccesor, or godforbid any intels. These two are of Motorola marquee.
Everything other, like G2, G3, G4, PPC, Risc, this or that PPC chip/proccesor are, and always will be - stages, in the development of the natively, a PowerAmiga (PA) computer. So what is bothering us these days, without anything to have to show for it, is that the PPC isn't correct, it really is, as always evidently was, the PowerAmiga issue in this book.
The AmigaOne is the PowerAmiga computer of insanely huge possibilities, and remains as such. It's lifetime is expected arround the number of 1000. - Years. After this, come the AmigaTwo, AmigaThree and so on. The processors can be set to be on the numbers between 1 and 9,999, both of them. No MhZs here.
OS4, AmigaOS4, or WB4.0 works fine and dandy on Motorola 68k *new Amigas*. These have indefinite minidisc tehnology for hard drives, have all three graphics; the ECS, the AGA, and the finished VGA now called VEGA, modems, perfect huge monitors, mediators, retargetable graphics cards like Cybervision or Picasso, joysticks, mice and everything else in them or with them.
The OS4 in "Classic" Amigas comes along with every other known OS for the Amiga. The 3.1, the 2.04, and the 1.3. These all look exactly the same as they have ever, except now these are fully functional and full Operating Systems for the Amiga platform, the only new known besides Commodore 64, and the old PC. The 1.3 is now used for netowrking and remains such os. Networking is now AMIX. The Amiga (-)Unix.
MorphOS *isn't* the PowerAmiga OS, muchless is it the OS4. MorphOS is just a morphing object, as it is so called, towards the PowerAmiga OS which is that tiny detailed graphics all 'round the clock.
P.S.
The proccesors are all between (and) MC68000 and MC68990. (BY the 10) The standard medium is minidiscs o the side of a prefferably and majorly integrated case, and you can attach any kind of disquette drive. All without wires.
Amiga.
