Merlancia Industries Announces the MCC 1000 and the MCC 1200

Hi,

I have no doubt they will come out with those machines. As for the OS, tricky. I do not think OS4 will be running on it. Don't think Eyetech is keen on others to come out with certified OS4 hardware. If you read the next:

"Don't be fooled by our competitors' products. The Amiga MCC series products are fully retail packaged multimedia computers and servers, not just bare logic boards like our competition offers. Don't settle for a system that you have to piece together with parts that you have to purchase after the fact, or spend frustrating hours setting up. The MCC is ready to use right out of the box with a variety of specialized platforms available including a general use desktop, a multimedia/video composing station, and advanced servers."

So wich OS? I think Linux for the x86 machine. Maybe BeOS like OS's. But even from reading the above about the competitors', I would say that on the PPC machine we will have MorphOS. Pretty sure about that, ;-) And if not, Bill: jump on that wagon there.

Hi,

I can understand that some companies would not be happy if OS4 would run on "not certified" hardware. I mean, those companies pay Amiga so that OS4 runs on their hardware and there you have some other hardware were it runs on. Not right.

But like I said, I am pretty much sure that the Amiga MCC 1200 will have MorphOS to run.

I don't think Eyetech has any say in the matter.

I agree. But would be nice for them to be the only one. :-)
