Amiga dropping plans for new machine

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the out-with-the-old-in-with-new dept.

Jesper Svennevid came in with the hook-up to yet another Amiga story (YAAS). It now appears that Gateway/Amiga has dropped plans to build a new computer, and are going to work on creating a "simplified Internet interface". The article also talks about Amiga wanting to go into "home-networking", competing with Sun and others.

  1. Then Phase5 it is by RickyRay · · Score: 5

    Phase5 (who does the best PPC and video upgrades for the Amiga) has been working on an Amiga replacement for years (the project used to be called A\\Box). They have announced a pretty sweet new version of the Amiga for early next year using the QNX kernel. They're at www.phase5.de.

    Unlike Gateway, it appears they really are going to do it.
