Hi all, I have extended Gothem for another month as I feel we should all give this one a go. I am going to have a go tonight and post a score. For a change, I am having a fairly relaxed easter long weekend!
. I hope you all are as well.

With all the recent discussion we had on the forum about the "Tabor" etc and Amiga OS4 (Which I am starting to play with for the first time) I was wondering is anyone was running it on real classic hardware? ie; with a PowerPC card?

Just purchased a 603@240Mhz / 060@50Mhz Blizzard PPC card so hoping to get more into OS4 on classic machines.
Will likely run a dual boot, or swap SD cards with OS3.2

That was always my dream! to Run a PowerPC Amiga! Never did get there!
I do own a copy of OS4 (FE) that I have run on the Emulator - various - but Have never put in the time to learn about it!
Its been on the "I'll get to it list" for a long time!

I'll be sure to bring the 1200 with Blizzard 1260 PPC & Blizzard Vision to the next meet in February!
You can check it out then, see what you think
I think the PPC works better with OS3x stuff as it's a 603 in the Blizzard 1260. OS4 on the X5000 is a better experience, but all the same it's fun to run on classic hardware
