Things look a little better through the WayBack Machine :)


Its more informative that way, but less amusing.

I get the proper history page for Draco here.

I like that better. Looks like it might have more utility than a Draco.

MacroSystem is still around, although I don't think they're using the Draco name for anything anymore.

Yep, they are still around, but there hardware and software has fallen out of favor with many users as its considered overpriced, under powered, and somewhat buggy.
There a plenty of PC and Mac based solutions available now that offer much better value.
I still wouldn't mind getting a Draco or 1st generation Casablanca to run RTG software on though.
From what I understand, they can run OS 3.1-3.9.

A DraCo can run 31.-3.9 with RTG and it is very good at that.
But no one has ever managed to hack a Casablanca to even load any workbench version.

I wonder why?
The RTG hardware (video) is known.
Wouldn't it just require the same software as an Amiga using the same video solution?

On the Casablanca, the graphics card is not known...

I though the video card was based on a modified Retina Z3.
