Title: OS4 Laptop
Post by: Mouse on April 12, 2006, 11:52:05 PM

Is it possible to squeeze the A1 gubbins (tech term) into a laptop case?

A Micro A1-c might fit into the case but you'd probably have to take out all of the drives and have a custom power supply.

You might just as well postpone the idea until somebody engineers a laptop setup for the Amiga like a Paws 1200 with a PowerVixxen LT.

Pointless, just run OS4 on PearPC.

That won't work. OS4 only works on the A1 board, and maybe in the future on classic Amigas with a PPC board.

No technical reason why it couldn't be done though... if there was any serious interest in OS4 it would have been done years ago!
