I would imagine the industrial version doesn't include AmigaOS.

Which I kinda find odd.  I thought ACube wasn't going to sell any hardware that didn't come with OS4.  Now it does, so does that mean the old agreement/contract is no longer valid?

ACube have always said that they sell their boards to industrial customers; this is just the first time that they have provided a price up-front. Everywhere else they say that prices for the industrial version vary depending on volumes, and that you should contact them.

Type "Currency Converter" into the search engine of your choice to find the current rate.  A few minutes ago it came out to $858.033 US dollars for just the motherboard.  I did not calculate the conversion for the complete "Lite" system.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

What makes this 'lite' compared to the regular 460ex?
(Serious question!)
