"so there's a 68000 compatible emulation mode for the PA-RISC." - cool!
Development path:
"We've had a lot of work spent on designing new instructions which allow us to have really fantastic 3D performance,"
(AAA + HP-PA-150 in a single chip)
Guess this why there's so little.. OMG-machines out there:
It's a matter of ensuring that there's some vision at the top of the company in order to let something like this go through. Commodore has too often in the past been in the situation of having designed very cool products which just at the very end of the life cycle after we've spent all the money on them don't actually make it to market because the people at the top have a lack of vision and when they see the finished product say "Oh no, they wouldn't wanna buy that." But I don't think we'll see that with the potential buyers.
The core business?
he best of the resources that Commodore's always had, basically designing our own chips rather than going out to someone else and just using an off-the-shelf chip.
