Damn, I *need* this. Oops, wait, it says
"Since the OS4 will be bundled with the card, there is no major meaning to release any product before OS4 is done". Mm... I though that the point of the MPC 5200 was that is is NOT a PPC CPU ! :crazy:
(final) OS4 is PPC-only OS, am I right ?
I'm confused, because if the MPC 5200 IS a PPC (it very much seems so), then why should I prefer it over the (way faster) G3 ? Specially if this board "does not need a 1200"
?
Maybe I'm mistaking it w/ the ColdFire... I mean, Freescale, if I'm understanding this righ, is NOT a CPU, but a BRAND, exactly the Motorola's CPU division that we know & Mm.. love..?
And other things are quite unclear, like in the specs :
"AC97 audio CODEC (automatically integrated with Paula)"
Mm...
Wake me up when it's done, if ever. On the other hand, I'd like to know what exactly IS this CPU we're talking 'bout, and for that matter, what it's not.
BTW, what would happen if I order
this ? Would I receive something that reads "Voucher for a Dragon when it's done" ? :-?
Me, I only want to do FAST 2D anim with DPaint and SCALA. AFAIK, my only options are a plain 68k or a ColdFire. Given the status of the latter, I'm left with only ONE option. Heh, it could be worse
If I want a OS4 machine (and well sometimes I do) I'll buy an AmigaOne, so why the need for this ?
