Genesi
Genesi is a new company that has deep roots in its
people who come from various segments of the computer
industry. Genesi has two core groups for operating system
development and electronics engineering that have worked
together to create an open hardware platform that provides
exciting possibilities for many markets.
Genesi's new hardware platform is called Pegasos. The
IBM/Motorola PowerPC(tm) family of processors was
selected to drive the Pegasos system. Genesi's
engineers created an open hardware platform based on the
CHRP motherboard standard for the PowerPC and selected
Open Firmware so that many operating systems can work
easily on the Pegasos platform.
To compliment the Pegasos and provide a complete solution,
Genesi has developed MorphOS - a preemptive multitasking
operating system. MorphOS combines a modest footprint with
scalability, high performance, and amazin ease of use for
developers and end users. Its beautifully designed
interface and modular object-oriented design offers a
modern solution.
Genesi will display several machines running MorphOS
1.4 and different versions of Linux, including Debian Linux,
a live bootable CD of Gentoo Linux, Mandrake 9, as well as
Mac on Linux. In addition to standard applications, the
Pegasos machines will demonstrate its capability for With
Full Screen DVD Playback DVD Ripping / DIVX encoding,
Streaming Internet Radio with file download and more...
Together Pegasos and MorphOS provide a singularly powerful
solution for both personal and professional applications!
The Pegasos and three of the available operating systems will
bear the Ready for IBM logo.
