Now only to buy peg2 and send it to BSzili. I will post message on amibay just with words that we need peg2 latest rev + g4 /1 ghz + ram 1gb + radeon9200 or 9250 and we will pay 500E for.
If anyone have anyone in mind who want to sold peg2 for us for 500E , let me know as well, the faster we will buy it the better.
@smf I don't really need an X1000, and I'd feel like I ripped people off if I was asking for such and expensive machine just to do some port
@kas1e That was fast! Don't forget to mention AOS4 in the ad, since most Pegasos' come only with a MOS reg. Otherwise you would have to subtract ~130 EUR form the offered money, or whatever an AOS4 copy costs.
Why not to try to buy him a new hardware, e.g a Sam460 to support also another Amiga goodfellow, this time a HW producer ? Just to put the synergy to work.
just my 2 cents ... and mentioning it because the collection was so fast
@treke Because hw with G4 and Altivec is need it (so optimization and all that tasty things possible). As well as need harware which 100% prove to have all working drivers, have no single problem with anything, and support all possible stuff (and 3d , and 2d, and compositing, and overlays, and sound, and networks : everything and all is good and as should).
AmigaOne XE with G4 also can be ok, but its more rare that peg2, and prove to die more offten in compare with peg2. So because of that we choice peg2. But if there will be option with AoneXE with G4/1ghz, and it will works without problem and cost 500E with os4, then why not too.
there is an american guy who sell the pegasos 2 but i think is totally crezy because ask too much money for the Hardware ... Write him for sell ALL the machine 500 euros with all the stuff shipping included for all
@tlosm Yep, i already noted that one yesterday when briefly scan amibay, and its all seems ok imho. We can just ask him for mb + cpu + ram + radeon, for just about 450, and then buy ourselves os4 copy (which is about 100E more, but i can cover latest bits from my own) for peg2.
I just wait till amibay admin will register me there, so i will be able to wrote posts. In meantime, maybe you can just drop me his mail in pm ?
