  • Pegasos I Morphos 1.4.X
    Pegasos i MorphOS 1.4.x Mariusz Barczyk (c) Polski Portal Amigowy (www.ppa.pl) Pewnego pięknego poranka wybrałem się na wycieczkę do Łodzi. Pewnie się domyślacie co było celem tej wycieczki. Po dość męczącej podróży mój Pegaz był już w domu. Przywiozłem go w pudełku po płycie od PC, które się w dodatku nie domykało opierając się o kartę procesorową. Jednak nie przeszkadzało mi to zbytnio, bo byłem bardzo szczęśliwy mając takie cacko na kolanach. W zestawie oprócz pudła było: płyta główna Pegasos z układami April2 i kartą z procesorem G3/600MHz, płyta CD z MorphOS-em 1.3 (mimo, że na opakowaniu myląco widniało 1.0), króciutka instrukcja obsługi wydrukowana na jednej kartce A4, schemat kabelkologii płyty na ładnym kredowym papierze i w dodatku w kolorze, dwie naklejki. Dane techniczne płyty głównej Pegasos 1 (opisywanej w tym artykule): płyta standardu microATX (236 mm x 172 mm) mostek północny ArticiaS slot karty procesorowej (procesory z serii G3) 2 sloty DIMM ECC PC133 max. 2 GB slot AGP x2 3 sloty PCI, opcjonalnie Riser Card dwukanałowy kontroler UDMA ATA 100 (4 urządzenia IDE) kontroler stacji dysków 1.44 MB USB 1.1 (dwa gniazda zewnętrzne i jedno wewnętrzne) FireWire (IEEE 1394) 100/200/400 Mbit (dwa zewnętrze, jedno wewnętrzne) port podczerwieni IrDa układ dzwiękowy AC'97 - mikrofon - wejście analogowe - wyjście analogowe - wyjście cyfrowe port joysticka PC Ethernet 10/100 Mbit port szeregowy port równoległy 2x gniazdo PS/2 Brak obiecywanego w specyfikacji modemu.

  • An Introduction to Morphos
    An Introduction to MorphOS Updated to include features to version 1.4.5 May 14, 2005 MorphOS 1.4 This presentation gives an overview of MorphOS and the features that are present in the MorphOS 1.4 shipping product. For a fully comprehensive list please see the "Full Features list" which can be found at: www.PegasosPPC.com Why MorphOS? Modern Operating Systems are powerful, flexible and stable tools. For the most part, if you know how to look after them, they do their job reasonably well. But, they are just tools to do a job. They've lost their spark, they're boring. A long time ago computers were fun, it is this background that MorphOS came from and this is what MorphOS is for, making computers fun again. What is MorphOS? MorphOS is a fully featured desktop Operating System for PowerPC CPUs. It is small, highly responsive and has very low hardware requirements. The overall structure of MorphOS is based on a new modern kernel called Quark and a structure divided into a series of "boxes". This system allows different OS APIs to be used along side one another but isolates them so one cannot compromise the other. To make sure there is plenty of software to begin with the majority of development to date has been based on the A- BOX. In the future the more advanced Q-Box shall be added. Compatibility The A-Box is an entire PowerPC native OS layer which includes source and binary compatibility with software for the Commodore A500 / A1200 etc.

  • Commodore Enters in the Play “Business Is War, I Don't Believe in Compromising, I Believe in Winning” - Jack Tramiel
    Commodore enters in the play “Business is war, I don't believe in compromising, I believe in winning” - Jack_Tramiel Commodore_International Logo Commodore International was an American home computer and electronics manufacturer founded by Jack Tramiel. Commodore International (CI), along with its subsidiary Commodore Business Machines (CBM), participated in the development of the home personal computer industry in the 1970s and 1980s. CBM developed and marketed the world's best-selling desktop computer, the Commodore 64 (1982), and released its Amiga computer line in July 1985. With quarterly sales ending 1983 of $49 million (equivalent to $106 million in 2018), Commodore was one of the world's largest personal computer manufacturers. Commodore: the beginnings The company that would become Commodore Business Machines, Inc. was founded in 1954 in Toronto as the Commodore Portable Typewriter Company by Polish-Jewish immigrant and Auschwitz survivor Jack Tramiel. By the late 1950s a wave of Japanese machines forced most North American typewriter companies to cease business, but Tramiel instead turned to adding machines. In 1955, the company was formally incorporated as Commodore Business Machines, Inc. (CBM) in Canada. In 1962 Commodore went public on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), under the name of Commodore International Limited. Commodore soon had a profitable calculator line and was one of the more popular brands in the early 1970s, producing both consumer as well as scientific/programmable calculators. However, in 1975, Texas Instruments, the main supplier of calculator parts, entered the market directly and put out a line of machines priced at less than Commodore's cost for the parts.
