The pre-release is coming, and the 50 megs of compressed SDK material is included.We get access via the serial number to updates -- including the optimised DMA and the graphic PPC, and no-doubt many bug fixes along the way.The thing boots directly for installation.Amiga Forever 6.0 will be out (announced in 24 hours) and it can boot and run from a CD without touching Windows (I have some uses for that at work). Please note just how well OS4 would fit for many such uses where Linux would be overkill and difficult.IBM sent a rep to our Amiga do (not insiginifcant) and he announces a really big push for PPCs in all shapes and forms (perhaps the hoaxed PDA).Alan Redhouse and Ben Hermans both make it very clear that they are happy with KMOS and give us a clear understanding that the current relations are all stable and the long term is yet to be worked out -- but they are soo confident.And for all those that missed it. The microA1 is ready to go into production all they need is a customer big enough for orders in the 10,000 or more. The good thing here is the Garry Hare is just in the position to find (if he does not already have) such customers. In short, the chances are that by the end of the year the microA1 will be available and at a reasonable price.
