still can't believe they announced this sooo long ago, saying 'we wont have to wait til summer' etc. what a joke. Something must've been SERIOUSLY wrong with the boards they had when the announcement was made.


Even that the boards were posible to produce at that time (which we have seen just recently), AmigaOS 4 wasn`t mature at all to support the board features. Now we see beta testing is needed for NEW AmigaOS features

Here you can read about the hardware side of the X1000.
Beta testers finally have hands on it. Now, we need AmigaOS 4.2 developed for good of all, and Amiga will be back .. in 2011/2012?

I am a member of the new A1-X1000 Beta test team, and eagerly await the shipment of my newest Amiga machine.

Errr, I thought the beta test machines had already shipped a couple of months ago?

Well hopefully the real beta testing can be done before the Special Edition units ship at the end of the year. After all the X1000 beta test was supposed to be very thorough and complete! Still not sure how they will beta test "X" though since none of those components are supported yet in OS4. Good luck guys!

most have shipped.  amigakit is doing a bunch of testing on the final assembled package (such as updating the firmware, testing the DIMMs, etc.) prior to shipment to the 'beta testers' -- or at least, that is my understanding. given that there is only one guy doing that, it wouldn't have happened instantly.  also the boards are being shipped all over the world.  it takes weeks to clear customs in some places.

lots of people have them, lots of people are testing, lots of feedback has been given.  and the final production version -- which was on display at amiwest -- was rock solid. :)

@jorkany

Maybe the "Special Edition" is special because it's still a beta test?

Hello X1000 First Contact pre-orderers!

How are you enjoying your new systems?
I assume you've gotten them by now.
