IBM PowerPC Open Plattform as PPC-Amiga?
Volker Grabbe writes:
Who wants to help me using the IBM plattform to create an Amiga-compatible PPC
computer? At the title link, IBM has released a PPC750 mainboard with AGP and
everything.
I am now looking for software developers helping me in writing an
emulating environment enabling AmigaOS 3.5 and later (hopefully) to-be-released
versions to run.
I need programmers who know UAE, and the coding of graphic board
drivers based on Picasso96. Informations about graphic chips, and developer
kits for the board will be made available from me. Contact:
Volker Grabbe.

Rainboot Bootconfiguration News
Andreas Falkenhahn writes:
The Airsoft homepage actually gives a screenshot of every Rainboot bootconfiguration. So you can review your configuration
before downloading it. Too bad you cant hear the many excellent sounds played during the booting.

AROS:State Of Developement Of The IBM Version
The code to build AROS standalone (to boot an IBM compatible PC) is now much
better integrated into the rest of the system. After boot, AROS opens a VGA
screen (no use of the text mode just like on the Amiga) and you are in SAD.
When the console is finished (should be just a couple of hours to finish...
if someone has the time and the knowledge ?), we will have a new Amiga based
on PC hardware.

ZDNet: ITG shopping list: Communications, consumer electronics
More rumors. An article speculates about a cooperation between Amiga and IBM.
Another potentially major customer is Gateway Inc. The North Sioux City, S.D., company's Amiga
division is developing a wide range of information appliances, including game players and Web access
devices. A deal with Amiga would be a boost to ITG's plan to enable "pervasive computing." Gateway
already has a cross-licensing agreement with IBM, but Gateway officials wouldn't say what the deal
covers. Neither party would comment on a potential deal with Amiga.

Tip: BVisionPPC with Overlay
Andreas Burmberger writes:
I have a little tip for BVision users who want to watch MPEG videos
a little bit faster, with Overlay. To achieve this, you have to enter
in the BVision monitor driver's tooltypes VLAYER=DESTRUCTIVE, and
save it. The cgxvideo.library must be installed, and after a reset,
the BVision can use the Overlay function with Frogger and IsisPPC.
