Thread: Register your PPC
Buleste 09:32 5th December 2007
For all those who have a PPC board please goto http://powerup.amigaworld.de/index.php?lang=en&page=39 to register your PPC so that the Amiga community knows how many are out there. If you do not know the serial number of your card, download whichamiga from aminet and that will be able to tell you (mines HCB0013). It's a worthwhile project.

Did that.
What are they hoping to gain from this info?

It's because no one ever kept tack on how many were sold so no one knows whats out there. Also it's to justify to whoever that there is a market for PPC software for classic Amigas llike OS4. Hows that going by the way? Have you managed to get your sound problems sorted?

No.
Will have to contact the creator of AHI and see if he has any ideas.

The companies who manufactured the PPC cards still exist don't they? Surely they still have sales records?

Have you managed to get sound out of your Paula? I know that PCI soundcards don't work with OS4 due to the BPPC not accepting DMA access.

As for the cards it says on the page that Phase 5 made around 10,000 cards but no one knows how many were made by DCE so it looks like the usual story of cock ups.
