Isn't there an oportunity with the G3/4 processors for a decent laptop?

[Jose]

Just another oportunity that's being thrown away. Those processors have lower power consumption than equivalent X86s , and would indeed give a nice laptop.
Yeah, no prototype to license...shame really.

Actually, I've been messing with various methods to use a stock Pegasos inside of a laptop case.  Admittedly, it would be a bit thick, about the same as my old Compaq (that is, 2.25" thick) but it would work, in theory.  However, I'd need bbrv to forward me the CPU card slot data, so I could make the appropriate flat-card for the laptop.

Ok, but talkin' bout a real laptop here.

@Jose

Without a definate market presence in the desktop, a proper laptop will not appear anytime soon.

However, Genesi does have a portable design in the pipeline, the Eclipsis.

I'm sure you've already seen this however might be of some use ...

1u accessories

Right angle Agp sockets

Actually I have one already on my Pegasos.

Not against Transmeta’s CPU products....

@Hammer:

But Transmeta's are not rivals. If the core for the  processors was out you could have a 68k (or ppc) at the same mhz as todays transmeta's  :-o  :-o
