Hello

Is there sombody that know if elbox will start production of the sharkppc?

They say

Prices start from EUR 299.95 (depending on the processor version).
(*) Production of SharkPPC cards will start as soon as the final version of AmigaOS4.0 for A1 is released.

Yes, it's due the day after Satan goes ice skating to work

Wow, just around the corner;)

I wouldn't hold your breath for this product. Unless you get your jollies dabbling in autoasphyxia erotica, that is.

More chance platting snot.

Searching Google: But surely you mean - Elbow "SharkSkin" Pads Size 3 and 4

Warmbac 5mm elbow pads. High quality with thinner neoprene straps to reduce arm fatigue caused by restricted circulation. Sharkskin lined one side to increase friction against the suit, helping keeping the pads in place when in use.

Available at any good Elbow pads store and and some awful ones too.

Your Price : 11.72

In case there's still anyone in doubt: http://www.sonnettech.com/product/crescendo_7200.html

Production has ceased long ago, they're selling off stock now.

Elbox has put out some real hardware over the years, the SharkPPC is not one of them. The product they were going to re-brand was a Mac accelerator that went out of production almost 5+++ years ago.

Sonnet is discontinuing all the PPC cards since apple has switched to intel with Snow Leopard, no more software PPC support.

Are they even in the Amiga business these days?  I assume they are only selling old stock and will soon remove that miss-leading website.

Yes, they are.  They are still producing updates to software and they released some new hardware relatively recently (fast ATA and Mediator TX).  Also they keep updating the Radeon.card for their Mediators.  Last update was a few weeks ago.

Now there's a challenge.  If only I can remember where I stored my "Snot Platter 2000".

Still releasing updates.  Well that's something I guess.  Biding time until the 2nd coming.

What drivers?

If someone still thinks that "SharkPPC" was anything more than just a plot to sell more Mediators (with vague promise of PPC PCI card for OS4) you need to smell the coffee...

[carvedeye]

so piru are you saying that these will just fit straight into a mediator and will be plug and play? that would be awesome if that is the case.
