NetBSD Ported To SuperH 64-bit SH-5 Processor

djcdplaya writes "Carrying on the tradition of NetBSD's ability to run on pretty much anything short of a toaster, Wasabi Systems has ported NetBSD to the SuperH 64-bit SH-5 processor. Here's a cut and paste job: 'NetBSD is the first commercially available operating system to run on the SH-5 platform. "We're very impressed with the speed of Wasabi's porting efforts," said Jon Frosdick, Director of Software Engineering at SuperH, Inc. Ideally suited for system-on-chip (SOC) designs and embedded applications, the SH-5 provides a feature-rich platform for designers developing set-top boxes, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), game consoles, networking and telephony applications, multimedia appliances and car infotainment systems.'"

and NetBSD runs on it. Why am I not suprize by this?

I honestly think that they would try and port that thing to flea collars if they could get one with transistors...
