Amiga Hardware Finally Shipping
If you're in the market for an Amiga box, today is a day for celebration. If you'd like an Amiga operating system to go with it, then perhaps you'd better leave the champagne on ice.
EyeTech Group Ltd., which announced the commercial availability of the AmigaOne in March, announced the rerelease and update of the AmigaOne after the company's developers discovered problems in the company's custom chipset. Although the company now offers systems based upon the PowerPC 7451 processor used in the Apple Macintosh, systems still won't be available until "just before Christmas", the U.K.-based firm said.
The boxes are functional; EyeTech has shipped them with a version of PPCLinux. However, the Amiga's secret sauce, OS 4.0, won't be ready until early next year. Users that purchase now will receive a free upgrade to the OS 4.0 package when it ships.
