AMIGADE RUNS ON EVERY OS AND MACHINE EXCEPT

You got a point. I think that REALLY AmigaAnywhere should run on OS4. Would be really bad that AmigaAnywhere runs on everything exept an Amiga. Makes you kind of freak out.

I disagree, I never heard that the Zaurus would be
"an Amiga PDA"; or at least that was never my
understanding. Sharp agreed to let Amiga develop
and demonstrate content on it and that was what
Amiga did.

As the Zaurus runs Linux and there is an
AmigaDE SDK for Linux I don't see any reason why
you can't run AA on a Zaurus.

I think Amiga Inc inflated the 'press value' of
a "partnership" with Sharp and hence all the
disappointment that Sharp doesn't seem to
be backing Amiga Inc.

Anyway, if you don't mind the size and weight of
the Zaurus, it looks like a pretty good PDA to me
with a very good colour screen.

I believe this is the next platform you will see the AA Entertainment Pack for

It goes back to that whole "not going to spend $500.00 to play a few games" thing.

First, stop shouting you twit.  Secondly, the "Classic Amiga" hasn't been a "real" machine since 1994.  It has been and will remain a hobbyist machine with a dwindling niche market replete with twits who SHOUT their way through incoherent messages.

Have a nice day.

Reason #1 -- Because if you do, you void the warranty for the DEVICE.  Besides, there's nothing available for AA except games yet, so what's the point of spending $500 for a Gameboy?

Hi wayne,

But you do agree that AmigaAnywhere should run on OS4, rigth? That is not classic anymore, but really fast hardware/software.

It will run in AmigaOS. Just in version 4.2 (unless im mistaken.) It will be a part of the OS, integrated within the OS and not just a player that runs under the OS. Better solution imho, but will take time no doubt and so its a planned feature of 4.2.

Hello anonymous hysterical person,

Just so you know, it also doesn't run on Macs yet, and while we Amiga users comprise less than half a percentage point in the computer market, Mac users comprise 6%.

What does this mean?  It means calm down, take a deep breath, and relax.  Or run to your panic room.  DE will come when it comes, and there's nothing we Amigans can do about it but wait patiently.

And look at it this way: By the time we get DE on our Amigas, it'll be a mature, fully-functional OS with a few extra bells and whistles.

I think it *SHOULD*, but it won't. IIRC there is no VP for PPC yet. And I'm willing to bet DE/AA whatever will hit Mac PPC way before Amiga PPC. IIRC Amiga's plans are DE on OS5.0 but no sooner. A little ass backwards but such is life. AA is still a 90% Tao product.

I agree that at some mystical point you should be able to run AmigaWhatever on an Amiga computer.  That being said, I completely disagree with any notion that a 600Mhz G3 is fast hardware.

Just so you know, we're "lightly" considering forming a company to take AmigaOne boards and pop 1 Ghz G3's / G4's on them.  Then we'd take'm, test'm and sell them personally configured for each customer in a Dell-type fashion.  Any interest?

Can someone tell me exactly what .NET is ?

Special order from Eyetech with no CPU and then you'd solder your own in? There would be TONS of interest in this! Oh hell yeah! If you could pull it off, go for it!!

Hi Wayne,

Seems very interesting. How is this all going to be?

Hey Wayne,

Alright, you caught my attention.  If an A1 board can be fitted with a 1 GHz+ G4 PPC chip, and work, then I'd be interested.  Although I would take any G4 PPC processor that is equal to or faster than 700 MHz.

But a 1 GHz AmigaOne  from the start would be an excellent way to restart the Amiga market.  I'm sure it would impress many nay-sayers out there as well.  And it might even force Eyetech's hand into bypassing the 700 MHz G4 and going directly to the GHz as well.

From 68060/50 MHz to G4 1 GHz in one fell swoop.  I like the sound of that.

Just say 'when', Wayne, just say 'when'.

P.S. Right about now, I wish a drooling smiley existed.

Wayne, I will let you sell your A1-G4 systems on my webpage free of any charge, but you will need to fill the orders.
