Have you seen this?? (Coldfire accelerator from elbox!)
« on: December 17, 2004, 03:08:52 PM »
Here
They call it Dragon or something, and on the website they say it has a 266mhz coldfire, 2 sdram sockets, agp, pci, and all that for ~350Eur and available at the end of january 05! I guess that means that there will definately be no sharkppc.. And will it affect/destroy the os4 "market"?
They also have a new banner at amiga.org.. But why isn't something about it in the news section?
They talk about special upgrade offers for mediator users.. beeing a mediator user myself I considered buying a shark to run os4 on it, but now I don't know, 68k looks like a dead end road imho.. but ~350Eur is much cheaper than a csppc+mediator or a microA1 for example.. I don't know what to think about it.. its a big surprise, they didn't announce anything like that afaik..

Yeah but that was afaik a different (hobby) project.. Maybe elbox had somebody working full time on this for a long time.. but anyway the release date is in a month or something, shouldn't they have at least a prototype ready for demonstration or something?
