Hello to everyone!
My name is Mathias and i live in Germany.
My first Computer was a C16 when i was 5 Years old :-)
Some years later i got a C64 with the legendary Datasette...
Then i saw a friends Amiga 500 and was amazed what this machine could do! Some month later i got my A2000D (which i own until now!)
I started to write some little Programms in AmigaBASIC and found that this was not my preferred language! So i tried
Assembler and after some years i got better :-D
After writing my first commercial Programms i buyed a A4000D (at the Computer'92) with 68040 and 120MB-HD!
At this time i started to learn programming in AmigaE and making some PD-Software-Stuff (like the E-DEVeloper, an IDE for AmigaE).
After the big Commodore-Crash i bought an Amiga1200 from Amiga Technologies (to "help" the firm, but i thought i should have better bought 2 or 3 of them :-( )
Then i started to programming linux-Stuff on PC (because of my work i have to do a lot of things on PC - so i had very little time for my AMIGA...)
Some years ago i decided to do some more for the AMIGA and started to design some Turbocard for my A4000D, but the Coldfire-CPUs at this Moment were not compatible enaugh (V2-Cores) so i designed a small system with little RAM, some FPGA making basic VGA-Graphics and PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse. Now this Project has grown up and a lot of Work has been done (like ColdFire V4e-native EXEC-Kernel is 75% done).
So if there are some interessted developers (which are familar to Amiga-Assembler-Programming and / or OS-Programming) feel free to contact!
Greets,
Mathias

greetings Mathias :pint:

Another FPGA hacker... The Amiga scene is getting very weird...

Kewl, it's nice to have you here with us!
Cheers! :-D

Good to see you on the best forum on earth. :)

I object, sir! That is more than "a little" introduction. Don't bring your inaccuracy here, sir. GOOD DAY!!!!!!!

Be more than welcome to the team !!!

Hi,
@Mathias
Why do all the wannabees bring there simple little projects
here.
Everybody knows Coldfire CPU's are Passe.
Welcome, if you take this seriously, I have some swampland
in Pennsyltucky to sell you.

Is that where they have some rodent predict the weather like they used to do in Mediaeval Europe?

Welcome to Amiga.org!
There seem to have been a few FPGA developers coming out of the woodwork lately which can only be a good thing! :-D
I was reading lately that the V4e is almost compatible enough (despite instructions that give different results) to things like EXEC with the cf68klib loaded. Is that true? I understand that for best performance a coldfire native binary would be better but can a V4e +cf68klib run 680x0 amiga binaries well enough to run EXEC?

Crikey!
I'm feeling a little inadequate

Where abouts in sydney are you from Marcb? I was thinking of getting a group together to check out whichever remaining Amiga user groups there are left out here.

@Amithony
Peakhurst , an Ami group sounds great!
where are you?
-
Parramatta. I know there's one out at epping. Not much else on the scene though. Quite tragic really.

Hey..
I live in Guildford.... :-D
And work in Granville. Let me know how things go.
:-P Sorry to Hi-Jack the thread... Now back to thread.
WELCOME !!!!!!! :-)

You know! Hi first, and welcome here!
If above quote is for real you should contact the NatAmi team ASAP!:-)
NatAmi Project (http://www.natami.net/)
User Biggun on this site is involved with it and is looking for help in this area I think. Even if the first Natami boards will use 68060, an upgrade path with coldfire is going to be evaluated/considered.

============================================================
Yes, and they stil do, with Paxtunt Phil or something like
that. You know these Pennsyltuckin's are in the North, and
I come from the South (Florida) and these yankees will
believe anything, even what a rodent tells them.
Anyhow I find yankees very amusing, they keep saying that
they won the war (civil war) but if you look at most of the
presidents they come from the South, except the ones from
Texas, they claim to be Southern, but most people from the
real South ignore them because nobody likes Texans, not even
the yankees, they keep claiming to have America's team, but
we know that isn't true, everybody knows that Miami holds
the record, and everybody likes the fins (Dolphins).
Just look what came out of Texas, the chainsaw massacre and
both Bushes, don't know which one was worse, but the bushes
seem to be gaining popularity as the worse.
