It seems ACA500 now works with Blizzard603e! A1k.org user Musicman managed to get together ACA500, Blizzard603e and BVision and to run AmigaOS 4.0 Classic.
March 9, 2013 license agreement between Hyperion and Individual Computers is now fulfilled:
In addition to the binary license, Hyperion will grant Individual Computers access to the source code of the IDE driver for further development which may facilitate installation of AmigaOS 4.1 and beyond.

What will be next? 4.2 on A1000?

@pavlor

That's pretty cool. PPC OS4 on the A500.

Just needs a case!

Nice review here: http://www.fitzstevesamigaworld.co.uk/?p=119

Link does not work at me

@pavlor

I was wondering if anyone has tried a Mediator with it yet.

@pavlor

Called it! I knew there'd be someone willing to try - didn't for one second believe they'd get it working though, that's freaking awesome!

Unfortunately for the well meaning and passionate amigan who did the pv, it was only a prototype.

That is so awesome it's almost wrapping back to silly. It has me drooling AND shaking my head AND giggling. More or less at the same time.

Now if Jens would consider making a PPC accelerator for the A1200 and the ACA500, things would be seriously cool.

I would totally assist in any way I can if he wanted that. As I do have a fair bit of experience with PPC designs now.

Using "voltage" instead of "potential", which leads to inventing new words like "amperage" instead of "current" (I, measured in A) or possible "charge" (amperehours, Ah or Coulomb, C). Sometimes I don't even know what people mean.

@Rob

I attempted this upon your suggestion. But alas, there are physical issues that wont allow this to happen preventing the header of the Mediator to mate with the ACA500.

Made me miss my big box of Amiga bits. Would love to try a Micronik z3i busboard and CSPPC combo, it'd be like strapping a Saturn 5 to a Citroen 2CV.

That is an impressive technical achievment, but tsk! What a waste of a BPPC that could otherwise be in my A1200.
