Why don't you realize that os4 on the gc will never appear?. It's higly unlikely that nintendo would beg for a license to Ainc., and if it were the case, theres NO MARKET actually for os4 on a product destinated to child audiences. And not to mention the memory limitations of the console itself. It would be more realistic to get a full linux distro on the gc that OS4. OS4 is dead already if nothing changes, they have blocked  the OS to this state, sadly. :madashell:
Only with a release for x86 systems could refloat the os, maybe...

It's a cutted down/custom PPC, not a stock one.
And for the other question, how many GC's would be needed to make up a rendering farm?. Wouldn't be cheaper using a Indy or similar workstation, because you would need a copy of os4 for each gamecube, and that imply if you have 50 gc's you would need 50 os4 licences. Mmmmm.. not so cheap i think.
Just my two cents.

That just makes no sense. If you want to code anything for worldwide usage, you need a license from nintendo to do it, if not, all the efforts would be illegal(remember accolade case vs. sega?).
First ask nintendo if they allow you or the one who will make the port, and then begin work. I'm not trying to give your mind away, but that project seems impossible one at the moment.
Cheers.

@lou_dias

Ack boards will not need an a1200 to work, the will work withouth any classic hardware fitted into it. And the size of the board will fit perfectly in an a1200 case, so i don't see the point of a need for a tower case for it.

I didn't say i not have a 1200, i have one and well expanded, i only told that the ack boards according to the text announced, could be put into an a1200 case withouth going to find an strange and overpriced custom case, just using the classic case.
Of course, you could put it in whatever you want, the choice here is irrelevant, anynone has his own ideas and choices, i only stated the fact.

What has this to do with the GC??????.
Anyway c is a good programming language, and if it sometimes can get complex it's because it's inherent power.
