Hardware News   Hardware News : EFIKA Available - 199 USD - 160 EUR
   posted by ironfist on 4-Nov-2006 9:32:55 (14428 reads)
The EFIKA is available for purchase in the Genesi Online Store.

The price is set to 199 USD. Bill initially told us the price would be 299 USD and slowly go down to the target price of 99 USD.

Maybe we can see that target price alot sooner.

I get the feeling that it's more than a simple window manager in this mode. You could probably use it for that and nothing more, but it sounds like you can also recompile Amiga OS3.x-native source codes to run on AROS in this way, which Linux alone is not capable of doing. Then you don't have to port the thing FROM Amiga TO Linux, as backwards as that sounds these days, but then you can run stuff from aminet with sources that might not exist for Linux.

@billt

Exactly, and the very same binary that was developed (built) and runs
on the hosted version also runs on the native version.

You can even run E-UAE with JIT inside the hosted version.
