Like the title thread says:What is the number of powerpc boards phase 5 produced and sold in europe?
Does anyone have the answer for this?
I had this question because i want to have an answer for this next question:
"What is the maximum number of amiga users that would be able to run amiga os 4.0 nowdays?"
To me running amiga os 4.0 seems like it has no future.I am a classic amiga 1200 owner and ppc boards are out of my budget and style-(i have money but i am not willing to spend several hundreds of euros for old ppc boards running only on 233 or max 266 mhz).
The number of users that can run amiga os 4.0 classic depends on the amount of ppc units produced so far and sold (and how many of these are still in functional status.)
Who has the patents and rights to produce these ppc boards after phase5 closed?I mean why hasn't someone tried to produce and sell those boards and make new units?
If technology was available in the 90ies to make such boards then why noone makes them now?
I think we should protest and demand cheap new ppc accelerators.Amiga os 4.0 is out but it is like an expensive hobby!Noone can run it but very few people!this is CRAP!!!
I am fed up with the retrostyle status on ebay that goes like "you want powerpc amiga you have to PAY for it dearly and high PRICE for the sin of wanting a fast amiga!"
I dream that someday soon powerpc accelerators will be available for all of us.Is this dream likely to be reality?
Or maybe amiga users have fallen in to a nightmare that we cannot escape?
Has someone felt the way i do?I really want amiga os 4.0...but cant afford to sell one arm and leg for it yet!
