Hardware, Embedded Systems "Tundra Semiconductor Corporation today announced the Tundra Tsi109 Host Bridge, the industry's highest performing host bridge for PowerPC, will be integrated into the Genesi High Density Blade Server, demonstrating the Company's rapidly strengthened position as the industry's leading supplier of host bridges for PowerPC." A lot of chit-chat press-release nonsense, but the bottom line might be that Genesi is trying to fill the PowerPC void left by Apple's move to Intel.

There are always two parties involved when something goes wrong!
Maybe Genesi has made some mistakes (sure they did, who doesn't?), but the others did so also. From the bsd guys POV it is easy to blame Genesi only, but to admit faults on the own side is always harder.

For the morphos story, same things apply as for the bsd story. Well, the OS was declared dead by some ppl (well, for some ppl the wish was father to the thought), but how comes that since this declaration the development was vivid and saw several major updates (V1.4.5, 3D update, MOS 4 PUP).

MorphOS is still supported by Genesi. http://www.morphzone.org

Look the the EFIKA Project Pages: http://projects.ppczone.org/projects.php?program=EFIKA

MorphOS is certainly supported as is EVEN OpenBSD.

Please stop the trolling bullshyt!

Also see http://projects.ppczone.org/projects.php?project=129:

"OpenBSD
Developers: Robert Nagy
Approved On: 17th February 2006

The OpenBSD project produces a FREE, multi-platform 4.4BSD-based UNIX-like operating system. Our efforts emphasize portability, standardization, correctness, proactive security and integrated cryptography. It would be great to see OpenBSD running on EFIKA as an embedded system."
