I have  strange urge to get one, though I have no use for it what so ever.

Resistance is futile:-D

2 down, 13 to go!

Looks kinda fun for the old 1200D, but I have no idea what I'd do with it :-)

Ever wanted to run Mac software on your A1200D? It really shines with AGA machines running shapeshiftr. In 256 color mode Graffiti is 30X faster than AGA alone, running shapeshifter.

if they only could make this one support amiga screens at 640x and make the aga better for workbench on a1200 desktop maschines, it would be a hell of a product... but nooo its for the crappy shapeshifter that no one have use for...  :pissed:

I agree with the above... why the extra speed for Shapeshifter... but not Amiga OS? 30x faster than AGA would be cool for surfing  :-)

So do you know if there are any standard devkits for it? I googled a bit and found some stuff by Jens on how to hit the hardware for it but I was hoping there might be some sort of basic link library or something that allows easy use from C.

I guess there must be...?

You should be able to write your own library, it a really simple peice of hardware.

You just treat the frame buffer as a chunky buffer rather than bit planes (probably best to have them sequential in memory to make writes fast)... oh you have to set up the grafitti palette... :-D

@bloodline

Saw that, but as it's such a simple thing I imagined there'd be one already?

Only reinvent the wheel when you can make it rounder ;-)

There is developer documentation available, I can email it to you if needed. I'm not a programmer so i really have no idea if it's what you are looking for. :-(

I'm sure you'd enjoy making a gfx library for it... I know I would, that's the only reason why I'm interested :-)

Actually it might be fun to write a P96 driver for it :-/

That would make alot of Amiga 500 users very happy!

[Karlos]

P96?

Without support for 640 wide modes wouldn't it be of limited use to intuition applications?

By the looks of the documentation I so far found I'm not sure it can happily coexist with the existing graphics.library routines (although I could be very wrong about this).

It struck me more as a bit of a hardware hack to get chunky modes for game/multimedia type stuff :-?

-edit-

Yeah, I have to admit, you got me there :-D

I like the way you make your ebay auctions sound so dramatic:

"LAST ITEM FOR SALE, NEARLY EXTINCT, VERY LAST ITEM PRODUCED EVER!"
