@KimmoK

I was just thinking out loud of what possibilities could the xmos chips have

PC users are currently using 4-8 core cpus, 8GB ram and high end GFX cards to convert HD to x264/DVD etc.

We can play catchup or take a technological jump ahead.

@thread

If XMOS is reconfigurable hardware, does this mean that one can change eg a data bus from say 64bit to 128bit ?

Could a xmos change a single HD media processor bandwidth to double with 2 HD media processors ?

for example an VIA VX900 Media System Processor.

@thread


So what is next ?

AmigaOne X600 ?

AmigaOne X1200 ?

AmigaOne X4000 ?

or

AmigaOne X1000 (2 core)
AmigaOne X1004 (4 core)
AmigaOne X1006 (6 core)
AmigaOne X1008 (8 core)

or

AmigaOne X1000 - 64 (2x 64bit core)
AmigaOne X1004 -64 (4x 64bit core)
AmigaOne X1006 -64 (6x 64bit core)
AmigaOne X1008 -64 (8x 64bit core)

AmigaOne X2000 (2 core, 2 xena)
AmigaOne X2004 (4 core, 2 xena)
AmigaOne X2006 (6 core, 2 xena)
AmigaOne X2008 (8 core, 2 xena)

AmigaOne X1000-ATI1GB700 (2 core, ATI PCIE 700 chipset 1 GB)

AmigaOS 4.x.32
AmigaOS 4.x.64 - 64 bit

Il take one : AmigaOne X2008-ATI1GB700-NatamiFX -64
and AmigaOS 4.x.64

@abalaban

done - thanks

@Lio

can u try these :

grep -r wizard /path to folder/

grep -l 'wizard' *.c

grep -l 'wizard' /path to folder/*.c

@Slayer

yes thats another way. But you still need a loop

eg

Rank = 12

For level = 1 to Rank-1
Total = Total + level
Next

print Total*180 + Rank*800

I thought you could try running the code using SDL Basic for OS4.

http://os4depot.net/share/development/language/sdlbasic.lha

If that dont work I can quickly make an Amos version - I dont know if you want a classic/OS3 program.

I only have Windows / AmigaOS 3 here.

edit: the c code
edit 2 few changes from abalaban - thanks :)

#include <stdio.h>

void main()
{
int base, amount, rank, total=0;

printf("Input base : ");
scanf("%d", &base);
printf("\nInput Random amount: ");
scanf("%d", &amount);
printf("\nInput rank: ");
scanf("%d", &rank);

total = (rank * (rank+1))/2;

printf("\nExperience is :%d\n", total*amount + rank*base);
}

@Slayer

A basic code would look like this :

Input "Base :",Base
Input "Random Amount :", Amount
Input "Rank :", Rank

Rem take off Amount as its added in the loop

Base = base - Amount

for i = 1 to Rank

Newbase = Base + Amount
TotalExp = TotalExp + Newbase
Base = Newbase
Print TotalExp

next i

I dont have an OS4 machine, so it was hard to find a programming language that would work.
Windows sdlBasic Version 20051016, Jul 12 2007 23:44:09, based upon SciTE Version 1.64, December 1998-June 2005.

Here is a quick SDL Basic Program I made :

Base = 0
Newbase =0
TotalExp = 0

fPrintS("Please Enter Base exp :")
BaseInput$ = zoneInputS( 23, 0, 10, "" )

fPrintS("Please Enter Random Amount :")
RAmountInput$ = zoneInputS( 28, 1, 10, "" )

fPrintS("Please Enter Rank:")
RankInput$ = zoneInputS( 18, 2, 10, " " )

Base = val(BaseInput$)
Rank = val(RankInput$)
Amount = val(RAmountInput$)

cls
' take off Amount as its added in the loop
Base = Base - Amount

for i = 1 to Rank

Newbase = Base + Amount
TotalExp = TotalExp + Newbase

' Show each Rank info
PrintS("Rank: " &i & " TotalExp " &TotalExp)

Base = Newbase

next
' Output the Final Rank and Experience Required
printS( "Rank " &Rank )
printS( "Total Experience Required:" &TotalExp )

I hope this is useful to you.
have fun

@gregthecanuck

I google CFE and all I get is MIPS/server/cluster.

Which just makes me drool over the 4 core 64bit MIPS cluster processor BCM 1480.

I think these are the mappings on the PC:

Button 0 "Cross"
Button 1 "Square"
Button 2 "Circle"
Button 3 "Triangle"
Button 4 "R1"
Button 5 "L1"
Button 6 "R2"
Button 7 "L2"
Button 8 "Select"
Button 9 "Start"
Button 10 "Right Paddle"
Button 11 "Left Paddle"

@thread

It would be great if we had a corporate website with ALL info about the AmigaOne X1000.

Not just specs, hires images - like a presentation on how this Amiga was made.

Videos running AmigaOS and speed tests.
Graphs etc
Full price listed etc.

Also a release date LIVE countdown every min.

Once the counter reaches zero the BUY links are enabled to all the distributers on the same day, for immediate dispatch !

like this site:

@ChrisH

I got mine on Monday and a good read too.

@thread

get a freelancer website have small projects and a good idea of prices.

A good developer can easily port to Amiga when given API documentation and a way to test it.

@all

Thanks ! Keep them coming - just updated main page

Now that we have AmigaOS 4.1 update 1, I think it would be good to list features or tweeks to improve AmigaOS 4.1 update for the next version.

It appears alot of time is lost getting the users previous pref settings set into the update.

My feature request would be :

Ability for an application to save its prefs in a language Ringhio understands.

In this way a prefs file (once executed) can communicate to Ringhio the settings an application is to use , and then Ringio can communicate to the new application to auto change its settings.

I know Ringhio was not designed for this, but it would allow easy prefs transfer / communication and standardized settings for all application prefs.

PS: i like Canon or HP multifuction printers myself

hope this helps

Edit: I would prefer a NEW printer for the bounty, so new users can buy a new printer, with latest functionalty and other bounties to get printer functions up-to-date.
