Sam440ep

Sam440, also known by Sam or its codename Samantha, is a line of modular motherboards produced by the Italian company ACube Systems Srl. The Sam440ep version is a Power Architecture motherboard based on the PowerPC 440EP system-on-a-chip processor which includes a double-precision FPU. It is made by AMCC. Their primary targets are the industrial and embedded markets, running operating systems such as Linux and AmigaOS 4.

At the time of release in 2008, it was the only AmigaOS 4 compatible hardware since the AmigaOne machines ceased in 2006; as of April 2009 Sam440 was the only Amiga-compatible board in production and now is succeeded by the Sam460ex, the AmigaOne 500, and AmigaOne X1000.
