I am working with AMD to get a full copy of their SimNow emulator for
developers associated with Haiku who want access to it.

AMD's SimNow emulator helps facilitate supporting AMD chip sets/video
cards as it emulates them by model. (not a generic virtual device like
qemu)

An example of SimNow running Haiku can be seen here:

There is a public version available on the AMD website with limited
functionality:
http://developer.amd.com/cpu/simnow/pages/default.aspx


There are a few requirements though to keep in mind:
 VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
 * you will need to sign an NDA.
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 * you will need to provide personal contact information.
 * each copy of the full SimNow will need to be kept for your own
   personal Haiku use (don't post it publicly)
 * SimNow is not speedy, it runs like molasses.
   * SimNow is meant to facilitate driver development and is not for
     day-to-day use.
 * developers with commit access are preferred, however if you do a lot
   of testing you could be included.

If you are interested, please contact me and let me know.  Deadline is
Thursday March 24th, 2011 6:00PM (GMT -6) (you can always apply on your
own, It's just easier in bulk)

Thanks!
