VIA Nehemiah 1.5 GHz CPU inside Amiga

[ido]

they show upgraded Nintendo with VIA C3 800 MHz CPU + mini ITX motherboard, running windows and Nintendo emulator.

hmmm? how is that an upgraded nintendo? it's just a PC in a nintendo case...

If such machine is possible, can the "upgraded" Amiga run AROS, Amithlon or UAE?

for all intents and perpose it's just a PC in an Amiga's case... you can (slowly) run on a via chip everything you can run on an Intel based PC. but what's the point, really? how is the Amiga case any better then just any PC case?

And until these new IBM build beauties are avaiable at a decent price

don't bet on it. you'll only be able to get them in a macintosh (the kind of which have always been pricy compared to a PC) or in an IBM wokstation (which have thus far been rediculasly expansive - far more then the equivalent PPC macintoshes). by the time bPlan & eyeTech will get them (if at all), they'll allready be outdated... just like with the G4s. Apple and IBM workstations get the top-of-the-line desktop PPC's first, then all the rest. :smack:
