I don't think the hopes about price point are well placed. If people are willing to spend 550$ for a 667mhz motherboard...
 
Its reasonable to assume that they will pay 750$ for a greater than 1ghz board, and so that price would seem more appropriate to the people selling it.
 
Also, if this does include some custom chips or hacks to run classic apps better, they can justify the price being that high.
 
I for one will be really surprised if its 650$ or less.
I can't ever justify spending that much when for the same money I can literally get a quad cpu socket tyan motherboard with 4 quad core cpus plus 8 gigs of ram. - Essentially a 16 core powerhouse.  
That kind of brute force will blow the doors off anything amiga.
 
Yes I understand, its not about brute force or power, its about having the user enviorment you prefer, with applications you have become accustomed to and like and so on, but still, I feel like os4 is just a dead end running on old outdated spec processors. As it stands now, I'd be happy to have one, but I can't justify spending that much on what can not really be my main computer due to all the limitations they still have.
 
Lets hope they stop the puzzle crap and release the specs/info and price soon. I suppose this was their "Most ambitious project to date" ?

Until I see the specs, I'm not at all impressed. Interested, but not impressed.

I can't agree more. $1000 for a primary machine is not out of the question but not for an Amiga running OS4 as it stands right now. It is simply too limited for the price point. As a secondary computer it would be difficult for me to justify much more than $500-600. Especially since I just upgraded my A1200T running OS4 with an Indivision. Although if the machine did what I wanted I might be willing to get rid of my system with the frustration its been causing me lately.

Fallout 1/2 had way more class than F3.

People who say that just are angry because the format changed. Fallout 3 was a master piece. I love that game. The SDK for it is also good and there is such a huge modding community for it that I can't quit playing it. I think Fallout 3 has made a bigger impression on me than most of the games I've played in the last few years.

He's right, you know. It didn't become Game Of The Year for nothing. I'm still playing it :roflmao:

Hey Karlos I'm writing a mod for Fallout 3. I completely agree and have already ordered a early copy of the collector's edition of Fallout: New Vegas. If people want to talk about this since it must be off topic, please PM me.

F:NV will come with the GECK engine similar to the first one so I am super happy.
