whot kind off cpu´s will work one it, i know the g4 will but in speed lets say, i find a 2 ghz g4 cpu will it work, whot is the limet of the cpu raser card ???
another thing i wonder, will the ELBOX "shark" in terori work on os 4.0
imagine a g4 cpu 1,7 card from ACK and a "shark" in the pci.
just burst my booble, i will just make another one ( i am a day dream beliver) |

| Glad to see that the AmigaOne will finally get back into the same performance ball-park as desktop PCs, with a 1.7GHz processor that (if what someone said is correct) has four times the L2 cache as the old one. Of course it is still lagging, but 1.7GHz is a lot better than 0.8Ghz, particularly given that it's a PPC, and it's not as if most of us actually NEED that much cpu power most of the time.
If only it were true (I doubt it) that Alan's only problem was sourcing CPUs for his remaining A1 mobos... _________________ Author of the PortablE programming language. It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue...

| Surely Seehund's "banana humping" animation (bananahump.gif) in post #121 is a violation of the T&C somehow? I couldn't find the T&C to check, and so have not actually reported it.
But basically, in reply to the "Where's the Donate button?" he quoted, Seehund basically seems to be saying (graphically rather than in words) that the guy is asking to be f*ck*d again (and probably enjoying it) for a high-priced low-performance board (not that I agree with him). Certainly that was the tone of the post he linked to. And I'm sure saying that in words here would be a ban. Last edited by ChrisH on 24-Apr-2006 at 02:52 PM.

Well it’s always nice whit the little extra for compiling, but I think the biggest slowdown it not the CPU, it the file system and hard drive, emulators on the other hand can some time be quite demanding thinking about Intel / AMD pc emulator or the Arch emulator. _________________ http://lifeofliveforit.blogspot.no/ Facebook::LiveForIt Software for AmigaOS

It surely can be seen as offensive... namely to the banana community all around the world! Bananas happens to have feelings too! Quote:

This is the joy of internet, you have (a) an animation + (b) a sentence and you get (c) a full drama to explore...
When I bought my Blizzard PPC I surely knew that (a) it was overpriced and that (b) any time soon I could be pretty f*ck*d myself due to lack of A1200 parts. It actually be seen as a quite dumb thing to do, but anyhow that's how someone who wouldn't spend that money would think (probably) and they might be right, in their own view, the problem here is that world is like them, not actually like us...Last edited by pixie on 24-Apr-2006 at 03:53 PM.

What, you're serious?
Then this witchhunt is getting outright Kafkaesque!
If you think "explicit images of cartoon fruit" are inappropriate, then whatever you do, don't read this thread (for but one example)! This is an earnest warning in order to spare everyone (but the 384 people who have already viewed that thread) the pain of being subjected to the most lewd fruit behaviour imaginable! Masturbating fruit, spanking fruit, and yes indeed, humping fruit. It's immoral, I tells ya! :P
And no, even your highly personal interpretation of the shocking display by the abominable bananas in my (or others) posts, i.e. saying "you're being screwed" with images or text, can't be construed as a ToS violation.
Aren't you concerned by the masses of hip-thrusting bananas in this thread? I'm sure it's frowned upon to imply that potential customers of this product are horny fruits! Or something! :P
Anyway, my amorous bananas were more of an "anti-dancing-banana" icon than anything else.
Feel free to disagree with the post I linked to, by all means! It's called "discussion", and this is something that's known as "a forum".
It's hard to believe we're actually discussing animated pictures of fruit, more so than that people are actually trying their very best to be offended and finding excuses to get rid of someone who they disagree with...
Edit: I forgot to add the appropriate icon:

I will buy the 1.7 GHz module and my XE will be very fast indeed!

| Actually, that 1.7GHz should be faster than my AthlonXP/1800 (runs at ~1.5GHz).
And compile times are really the thing here. It can't be the HD any more. That's damn fast now using DMA and all that. But with the cache alone, it should boost performance. Hopefully I can afford one. We'll see. Might wait until middle of the year - and hopefully they will be available over a period of time (say 6 month or so - well, see, I don't really expect too much - as long as I can get something). _________________ AmigaOne XE G3/933/VIA/FM801/R200 (fixed), G3SE/600/Voodoo3/Sil680/RTL8139/SBLive!

| @Seehund You do not own an A1XE. You are not interested in buying one of these announced CPU modules.

| Dont you understand that we dont give a flying f*ck about our opinon or anything else that you say for that matter? Why dont you make this place a better place and get the hell out of here? Just because people seem to have Amiga as a hobby doesn't give you the right to insult people left and right with your insulting comments! This thread was an interesting read before you stepped in and ruined it. And people tried to be nice and tell you that but you just had to go on and on and on. Seriously, what is your problem???

I think he just wanted to to derail this thread. To be honest I only seem to have seen the same old useless comments from Seehund whether he calls it discussion or not.
Perhaps I've missed the threads he's helped solve a programming problem or gave someone the info they needed to bring their A1200 back from the dead. |

I look at it this way, for $850.00 I get to:
1) Double the speed of my A1XE
2) Help this hardware supplier stay around
3) Infuriate Seehund
It's worth it to me!

| @Ikir,
If I was in your situation (IE working A1 and a classic) I'd go for the PV not the CPU module. The PV sounds a bit more intersting. _________________ ~ Everything you say will be misquoted and used against you.. ~

@Seer
I know, but 1,7Ghz is tempting since i use my A1 daily. The problem is that even with PV i will probably my 1200 sometimes. I'm going to buy also a MacPro (PowerMac) and sell my bugged pc. I think i can live with a highend mac and an highend Amiga without my 1200 and any crap pc. I don't know, 3 beer tonight will bring me the right answer _________________ ikir

Nope. I propose that nobody on AW.net should be allowed to comment on any product or business with any other means of expression than dancing bananas or oneliners containing the word "Great!!!", unless that person can show a proof of purchase or can prove that he will buy the product.
I do so hope you see what's wrong with that proposition.

What a remarkable question! If that had been my intention, I would have actually included some Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. See any? I posted my opinion. In one message, not a few. Agree, disagree, or ignore it. Don't make sh17 up just to have something to get angry over.

Heh, a reason as good as any! Good luck! :D But looking at this thread, there seems to be incredibly easier and cheaper ways to infuriate others than me. ;)

Talking to me? Then good for you, but I must say it's a really odd way to demonstrate your disinterest, in case "we" is referring to the meta-discussion crapflooders! Or are you using "we" in pluralis maiestatis? :)
Quote:

That's a laugh. I ruined it? You mean, "Don't post anything 'we' disagree with, since the crapflood of meta-discussion and personal insults which 'we' will be forced to release as a response will disrupt the flow of highly interesting, insightful and informative oneliners such as:"
"Cool!"
"Hooray!!!!!!!!"
"Great news!"
"Grats AmigaOne owners! "
"Good news! ."
Something like that? I might have som sort of X-ray vision, but I'm still able to see some interesting posts about things like specs and availability. Better post more dancing bananas and insults, folks! The infidel is to blame! :P

You didn't miss those, because I'm not a programmer (well, not what most people would call a programmer anyway), and my Amigas are A4000s and A500s, and I tend to post Amiga (a.k.a. "classic") related posts elsewhere anyway. But congrats on the effort, you managed to both imply that I'm an unhelpful infidel and give a review of my posting quality, all in a thread about new Teron CPU modules, at the same time as you accuse me of wanting to "derail the thread"! :D
I promise I won't bite any more OT baits in this thread, so I guess the fun is over for now. In case there's any pent up anger left in here, I guess it must be released in the direction of "ibum", "motoscum" or something now. _________________ Oh, bother.
