OLPC, the latest missed opportunity for Amiga?
« on: September 05, 2008, 09:04:56 PM »
I am sure many people have read by now about the the new $98 USD laptop. As I read the specs:

400MHz 32bit MIPS compatible CPU
128M/64M RAM
1GB NAND Flash
Linux or WinCE
7" 800x480 display
Wireless LAN 802.11b/g
10/100M ethernet

I couldn't but think it would be cool if instead of a MIPS cpu they used a MPC5121e (or maybe even a coldfire v5). I think AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS 2 are better suited to perform ok in that speed and memory range.
