I guess there will be quite a few people selling ppc cards on ebay when 0s4 is released..

Lots cashing in due to the hordes of users wanting os4.

lots selling once they have tried os4 and decide its not what they expected.

than probs more selling to get a sharkppc (vapour ahem)

My A1200/mediator/ppc 240mhz box is collecting dust until OS4 gets out. Has anyone contacted elbox about the shark ppc card? any updates or upcoming demos? Or is it just vapor now?

Hi

So let me get this straight. Your suggestion is that cus there is no hardware support for an OS that turned its back on the classic Amiga user, you expect all those classic Amiga users to now gift their kit to users of this fictional OS ... for what ? Give me a break. You can have your OS4... I'll stay commando.

My A4000T Specification

Central Processing Unit: MC68060 49.9 MHz (rev 1)
1 WarpUP Processor(s): PPC 604e 200 MHz (rev 2.4), 66 MHz busclock
Floating Point Unit: 68060fpu 49.9 MHz
Memory Management Unit: 68060mmu running
Custom graphics chip: AGA Lisa 4203 (rev 0)
Custom animation chip: AGA PAL Alice 8374 2M (rev 3-4)
Other custom chip(s): Paula 8364 (rev 0), Ramsey (rev 15), Gary (rev 0)
Graphics system: Picasso96
Graphics board(s): Picasso IV [Paloma Concierto]
Soundcard(s): Concierto
Hardware Clock: clock + battmem found, sunday 21-apr-2002 18:38:28
Max. Chipmem available: 2048 K
Max. Fastmem available: 130048 K
ROM chip version: 45.20 (Kickstart 3.9)
Workbench version: 45.3 (Workbench 3.9)
SetPatch version: 44.38
Expansion board(s):
5001/6: individual Computers/VMC HyperCOM Z4 (@$00E90000 64k)
4626/23: individual Computers X-Surf (@$00EA0000 64k)

8512/100: Phase 5 Digital Products CyberStorm PPC/MK III SCSI
(@$00F01060 128k)
Cyberstorm PPC serial #: DCC0270

.... Now that's what I call a computer. Classic and loving it.

PS: Totally unrelated. I have a RISCStation here. Its a PC mini tower with PC keyboard, PC mouse, CD Player etc etc, network card, connected to a PC monitor running RISC OS 4. This has grown from the Acorn camp. Works a dream. No real point... Well that's unless you reflect on the Amiga saga.

@Mikey C

Any news on whether my GVP 1208 can be flashed to run OS4?? If so, I might have one for sale... at the "right price" that is. :p

I hope OS4 classic happens, but to be fair all we have today is another announcement. Amiga Inc could try to interfer with the release using legal proceedings through the on going court case. Ask him again on Dec 1st. :-)

Just out of curiosity, does anyone one if OS4 will support Blizzard PPC? In the past it didnt. CSPPC or A-One only.

I'll still be laughing until I touch a physical copy of OS4 Classic for PPC (real) Amigas. I have to say Hyperion *usually* deliver once they've given a date but I'm not holding my breath for a moment. C'mon. ACK gave us a date, a price and a spec on the new hardware and still gave us jack-all. Many Amiga products have got this far and no further...

I recommend that people should sell ppc cards for around £500 each, you know someone will pay that.
