== What is Contiki? ==
[[Image:contikicpc.jpg|right|thumb|250px|Contiki running on the Amstrad CPC]]
Previously there have been attempts to port Contiki to the CPC. The most first successful port was done by [[Kevin Thacker]].
This was accomplished by:
The nature of Contiki (written almost entirely in C) and the poor Z80 optimisation by the SDCC compiler makes Contiki slow compared to other operating systems.
Two reasons prevented this in the Amstrad port:
The original plan was to implement [[CPC Booster ]] support in Contiki.
The CPC would be connected to the PC via a serial cable.
On the PC would be Linux running Slip or PPP.
The Amstrad version is based on Contiki v1.0.
