Just as a side note the version of AOS4.0 running in my Aone right now was set up on my A1200. I took a copy of my A1200 HD upgraded it to 4.0 and stuck it into my Aone. Looking at the code that is there and running some of the programs on my A1200 I can say it should be fairly easy to get AOS4.0 to run on the BPPC with only two caveats That is Bvision and the Onboard SCSI. Those two options will be the only impediment to getting OS4.0 to work on the BPPC.

The only thing standing in the way of that being a snap is a member of the original Phase V team who wrote the libraries in question and owns the right to them. This individual does not want to release the information.

One last thing seeing on how many of the Original Phase 5 boards have blow up or are malfunctioning due to some really piss poor engineering. I have repaired mine a few times and now the onboard clock has conked out, grrr!!!  The chance you getting one used that works or will last the year are not in your favor.

I suggest getting an Amigaone.
cheaper faster and better in the long run, than any of the alternatives at this time.
