Hyperion OS4 BPPC Survey.
« on: June 02, 2003, 11:10:28 PM »
Hyperion-Entertainment BPPC Survey

As Amiga OS4 for AmigaOne and CSPPC based machines nears completion, Hyperion is undertaking a survey to gauage demand for the BPPC version

Therefore if you are an Amiga1200 owner with a Dual Blizzard PPC card and would like to see OS4 ported to this machine, please send an email to:
timdg@hyperion-entertainment.com

Please note: Ensuring that OS4 will work on the BPPC is a momumental task which will require enormous effort in both Time and Money. Therefore only email us if you have every intention of purchasing OS4 for BPPC.

Your support is very much appreciated in this matter.

Ben Hermans.

As far as OS4 for shark goes, it's gone very quite. Not just at Hyperion's end, but most importantly at the Elbox end? Where is it?

Warface.
If the survey is positive, OS4 for BPPC will have nearly all if not ALL the features that will come with the A1 or CSPPC machines.

As to the price, i'm not Hyperion, but I'm willing to put money on the fact that it will cost the same the A1 or CSPPC version.

For everyone else's information, Ben Hermans has too much to do atm so I volunteered to post the announcements to various news sites and Mailing lists on his behalf.

For those of you who are not quite up to date with what Hyperion have said, they have stated in the past that they could do a relatively straight port to A1200 BPPC machines. The problem is the wide and vast range of peripherals/add-ons for the A1200 that make writting such a port a major headcahe

Thus why they are conducting the survey, they are aware of the amount of work required in incorperating all those gadgets. Before they start they want to make sure it's worth it.

Understandable don't you think?
