This email is written from an AmigaOne X1000, dual core PowerPC, running AmigaOS4.1 I split my "hobby" time between writing music/Midi programs and developing OS drivers. I have also played a bit with the bus interface for the on-board XMOS chip. I must say that having an Amiga that uses standard parts for keyboard/mouse/monitor/graphics/audio/ram/drives is quite a relief from the classic machines requiring custom parts. It's just a hobby, but this computer is just a lot more "fun" to use than any other I have owned. --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
