I called in and visited them before Xmas while I was back in Wales.  Great guys and 100% Amiga enthusiasts.

I think I might go over again in person to collect my X1000.  I don't want a repeat of Dave's experience!
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.

@Darrin,

Not a bad idea, but extreme shipping cost if you do it that way.:)

If you are an OS4 user, I do not see how you could be disappointed with the performance of the X1000. (unless you are expecting something unrealistic from it before it arrives.)

I am posting this from my X1000 using OWB (MUI version).  Looks very familiar to Fabs excellent Odyssey for MorphOS that it is ported from.  Glad Fab and others worked together on this fine browser for OS4, and hoping that more software cooperation happens so the same software can be enjoyed on either OS4, or MorphOS, or AROS (maybe even some of them on AmigaOS3.9 when it is running on a fast Natami system, or UAE on fast hardware).


Damn, I want one so bad.  They demoed a SAM for me while I was there and I was drooling.  It was tempting to go for the SAM, but I want the X1000.  It reminds me back when I first got an Amiga and I had to decide between an A500 and an A2000.  I spent the extra, got the A2000 and never regretted it.  :)

Besides, if I go back to the UK to collect it I usually attend a couple of soccer and rugby games too.
