MOS is superior to OS 4 as software, no doubt about it,
...and as a system as a whole (OS with HW).
there is no doubt X1000 is way better system then any current MOS.
Way better? No doubt? :lol:
It costs $3,000+ and we could have stopped there really, since there would be no need to go further in comparisons after that nuclear bomb argument. But since you seem to have some comprehension issues - it's 2005 performance, the 1/20 priced Mac's running MorphOS beats it in tests, the X1000 could probably go into Guinness Book of Records as the worst bang for the buck ratio hardware in 2012. The X1000 is killing OS4, and it's funny that you are so blind you can't even see it. I'm glad they're not letting MorphOS get dragged down as well. Going the mainstream way was the right way to go, we know that now.
I dont say there are no spare parts (how long is questionable) but that there is no customer care (e.g. someone that will do all the work not only sell parts) and no matter how cheap its risky cause repairs are rip off. You mentioned Apple customer care, truth is there is none. I asked Apple Serbia, they can just sell me mouse for extreme price.
Risk? Well, the parties behind X1000 (Eon and Amigakit) can't even afford to make the product available in a proper way, they have pre-orders, pre-payments, and delivery times up to a half year. These are the financial "muscles" issuing your "warranty", for a system using a limited amount of left-overs of a dead-end CPU. What if if for some reason the warranty issues starts stacking up? What if something similar to MAI/Articia S arises? There is no way they could replace/fix all boards like Genesi did with the April fix, they can't even afford to make their product available in the normal way! The only way for them would be to do like the previous AmigaOne company did, make a tantrum post at AW.net, take their money, and leave forever. Afraid of your Mac breaks down? Just get spare one, and you still have paid only 2/20th of the X1000 price. That's how "risky" Mac's are. There are hordes of them, they costs virtually nothing, they perform like an X1000, and if one breaks down, get another. It's mainstream HW.
as you like it, but OS with no new hardware will also be seen as dead.
Think about that.
PPC *is* dead!
SInce no G5 MOS, this is G5 system.
The only thing about X1000 that is "G5" is that it's 64-bit (something OS4 can't utilize anyway); otherwise it performs like G4 macs.
Ignore facts, but X1000 is great system, and its just hurting MOS that MOS doesnt support it. Rethink it, most of X1000 users could love to have faster AmigaOS derivative, knowing it was first PPC AmigaOS ever.
It's not better than what MorphOS already supports at a fraction of the price, it will never have more than a hundred users or two, and all these are OS4 fanatics (the only ones who would even *consider* paying $3,000+ for something like this) who *never* would be interested in MorphOS. Anyone really interested in MorphOS can *easily* get a MorphOS system, at *change money* in comparison. X1000 is utterly redundant to MorphOS. Get over it!
No need for PM to you, PM if you believe this is propaganda
His request to take the discussion to PM instead, was in order to keep this thread on topic, which you obviously refused. OK, have it your way...
