Hello
On Dec. 21, 2003, Mai Logic had announced new
Articia I chipset for IBM PPC 970.
Will the next generation AmigaTwo based on
this chipset and IBM PC 970?
What is the release schedule for AmigaTwo?
Mai


I think their main focus is ment to be getting a working OS for AmigaOne other  than Linux!

I doubt they would be even thinking about AmigaTwo before AmigaOne users have been satisfied.


On the other hand, if MAI can get the new chipset out bug free, it could possibly be used for the Pegasos III!!!! :-)

At least the AmigaOne costs less than a Terron board bought straight from MAI!

You mean the other way round, surely?

Recently Mai don't seem to want to acknowledge the currently available Terons; you might get the same reply as I did: try asking at eyetech.com (sic!)
Before this turn, they said $500 for an 800MHz G4 Teron PX (i.e. "AmigaOne XE"). That's also the same price as Terrasoft was going to charge before they dropped the Teron idea.

Eyetech's RRP for the boards when sold as "AmigaOnes" seems to be $800, and I see from the current amiga.org ad that Forefront is selling them for "only" $750. :)


I'm getting my prices from here

$3,900 !!

I guess these other companies are getting theirs super super bulk!

AmigaTWO will be a dual processor system. (That's what the number in the name stands for.)  If AmigaOS starts to catch on again then we'll see about dual processor support.  8-)
Where do you get that from?
