PIOS Goes Public

Next-Generation RISC-based Computers from PIOS were officially announced at CeBIT '97 in Hannover.

Two machines derive from the "PIOS ONE" hardware design, namely the transAM, considered by many the long-awaited successor of the Amiga, and as the second product line the Maxxtrem as a Macintosh-compatible Personal Computer. These machines are not yet available, they are in final state of development.

The third new product is called KEENYA and is based on the Motorola "Tanzania" board. It is a Macintosh-compatible computer, available with a PPC 604e CPU at 200 MHz.

Please visit the products section for more information.

PIOS is looking for new German staff members, a sales and marketing director, sales representants, and a hardware engineer (in German).

Webdesigner joins PIOS

Gustaf Stechmann designed this website and some of the new sections, like Questions & Answers.

Working as a freelance designer in Bayreuth, Germany, Gus hooked up with the team at Hildesheim shortly after CeBit '97.

Exclusively for registered developers, the first industry-made machines will be available as Null Series devices even before the official shipment of our products begins. This will give you a head-start of developing on the PowerPC Platform. Distribution will be handled directly by PIOS Hildesheim. To become a registered developer, please visit the support section.
