ACube's new projects

@TheDaddy

It's good that they are doing things outside the Amiga market. Gives some hope that they will actually survive ;)

Would be cool if they could "Amiga" badge stuff like these. Ohh well.

@TheDaddy

"a mini-pci graphic and audio board" + A1200?

@TheDaddy
I will be a BIT dissapointed if this is the really big thing at planet amiga tomorrow. I hope for more,bigger and better.

@Antique

I don't know anything about the meeting and announcements but I suppose it is the great news. Don't you think it is ? What would you expect ?

First, that's nice to see that the development has been continued during the last months in parallel with Sam flex. Second, it is a new PPC projects with an interesting application field.

I am entirely satisfied by this news and I am excited about learning more about that.

@corto

Yes it's good that they make boards for other markets too. But i do hope for more in a eventually new os 4.x machine.

This sounds like AMCC's "Pismo" reference design based on the 460EX.

Have a look here: http://www.appliedmicro.com/Embedded/ ... MCC_NAS_Product_Brief.pdf

The reference design is missing any expansion capability. However the 460EX does have x4 and x1 PCI- Express support and a PCI 32bit/66mhz bus.

Should be interesting to see how far Acube takes the design.
