Hm, why don´t they tell us about that on their webpage?? They´re still proudly showing up the Phenix with all the super specs on that site.
This was just too bad news :( cause I really wanted/needed a computer of that kind...
OK, then we´ll have to build our own computers, then at least we can be sure that we´ll get what we want, right?
We´re trying to put something together here, but there´s loads of different chips and interfaces to choose from. Can´t have them all, even if we want to... and we have three demands hanging over us on this project. This gizmo has to be:
1: cheap ( ok, unexpensive)
2: flexible, and handle most standard interfaces
3: still as powerful as possible (no, really? ;)
An not too easy combination, but it´s very fun, working with. We´ll see what comes out of this...
Too bad, they cancelled the Phenix 260, I just can´t understand WHY, if the machine was finished, and potential buyers (like me) just can´t wait to grab it. Have you heared of any reason? Maybe they simply couldn´t get it working...?
