The PA-7150 CPU in the Hombre chipset?
« on: June 05, 2013, 07:09:52 PM »
Was the PA-7150 CPU in the Hombre chipset supposed to run user programs or was it supposed to be dedicated for the graphics like the GPU in current graphic cards?

Thanks for all the answers! ;)

So WinNT.. why would one buy an Amiga to run WinNT? except that it would be cheaper.. perhaps?

Better chance of AmigaOS or som Unix. BSD would been available around 1993.

If Hombre would been finished on time (by having the right budget). Would it have provided a sales success at the price point if could been sold at?

There's no slow computers,, just to little money to buy them ;)
