Survey PPC/G3-Expansion Cards and OS for PPC
We (that is A4EP) just launched a survey about PPC at our Amiga-Society-Page. We want to find out how big the interest in
PPC-Expansion Cards and OS's is. The main thing ist to unveil what power they should offer and how expansive they could be.
Especially for a new Amiga-PPC-OS it would be interesting to find out what requirements you make on the new system.
We hope that many of you will help us and we will publish the meanresults in regular intervals at our webpage.
