    Just a quick question:

    Do we still have Amiga or RiscOS users?
    If not, I would like to drop Amiga and RiscOS support.
    I don't even know, if LAME still works on these anyway.



    Ciao Robert

    RiscOS, would PPC be under that?

    Hello Greg,

    GPG> RiscOS, would PPC be under that?

    RiscOS was an operating system for ARM-based computers,
    mostly from Acorn (e.g. Archimedes and RiscPC).

    Atari was a nice project, a shame developments stopped so fast on it :(

    also that bbc plus with 32bit accel 2nd cpu, remember the 6502 dual boards with pipe to client server, i remember it

    i know its not acorn but not much of diffrent there, where is my amstrad 6128 now :)

    Hello Benny,

    Acorn's BBC computers could accept various second
    processors via the Tube connection if I remember rightly. It was one of the first examples of heterogeneous multi- processing that I knew about.

    BP> ...where is my amstrad 6128 now :)

    I have a friend who may have had one of those. I know he
    had a 464 and talked about the 664 and 6128 when they were released. I believe the PCW series inherited a lot from the CPC.

    yep even another 6502 cpu board, when i sav that i thinked why, today i know more why it was so cool

    same practice is in amiga where 68000 is just one control center for all the rest of the girls on mainboard, if the market as today was build on that idear there would be better computers and mac was better :)

    shame on the few that belived we need to put a 80286 into a500 to make it possible to run all the good software from friends at that time, today its seems silly :(

    problem i have in my 6128 is that the floppy drive cant run the floppys around :(, so i have to make repair when i find how to :/
