Re: SharkPPC PCI card in an x86 box?

Hello
8 years ago I put together 2 YARC Passive PCI PPC601 SMP (8 Mb RAM) cards
inside ordinary Dell Pentium/75 MHz with TAOS
(precursor of Intent / AmigaDE).

Perhaps if TotalImpact or Omnicluster can create
a similiar Passive PCI card with PowerPC970 2.5 GHz
and 256 Mb RAM, I will try again.

SharkPPC: If Shark use passive PCI bus and dual
ported memory interface, perhaps it is possible
to use it on PC with the correct AmigaDE / Intent
device driver.
