Soft3 hast posted some pictures of a working AmigaOne G4-XE along with pictures of the Dual 7410 cpu module.
soft3 Web site

Alan has also posted a msg on the mailinglist regarding the price difference between the teron px on sale by Terrasoft and their own products. It would seem that it's posssible to upgrade a linux only board to run OS4.

Too much caffeine????
There\\\'s no such thing!!!!!!!  :pint:

Nice to se some news..
I am really excited about the new amiga...

But for me this HW is useles without AOS. I don't care for linux, and if I want to run linux. I will use x86 hw.
I want AOS4 with PPC HW...

Yep, those dual G4's look very nice

Anyway, just wanted to say I'm running Debian on my A1 and have sucesfully installed Mac-On-Linux. MOL is fast enough on this G3 600MHz so on a G4 it must fly,

I'm very impressed with Debian/MOL. Next up is to install UAE then i'm gonna play with Mac, Linux and Amiga on one desktop

This is my first post from my AmigaOne

Cheers,

J

Those inflated prices of A-one boards are old news.. There have been lot's of discussion of those on Ann.lu days ago..   :-D  :-D  :-D

And that Linux->Amiga kit.. It's public info on KDH and Vesalia sites..   :-P

What I would like to hear from Alan are real new info, like status of those Aone-Xe boards they supposed to deliver some time ago. But apparently it was not important enough info to give us.

@JoannaK

I agree, they never update their website but seem to think everyone is going to read announcements on mailing lists,

Cmon update your website even if it just to let people know your Alive/Active.

Very nice pics, indeed.   Good to finally see a pic of the dual cpu board.  Now if they can just get all this stuff together and out to the shops to buy!  (Patience, I know)

The new pic also has a rom in the socket next to the PCI slots, anyone know what that is for?  It's not in any of the previous pics.  (OS4 rom maybe?? or Artica fix rom? or ???)

Hm, sad. Why "drool and cheer" over a motherboard that only runs Linux at the time being? AmigaOS 4 might change everything - granted, that will be cool! - but I'm for sure not going "ooh aah" and creaming my pants because Eyetech now took pictures of a print and a G4.

Hello, Hyperion? You made the kernel work some time ago. How's the rest of the OS coming along? Software is coming out for MorphOS and people in favour of AmigaOS4 is requesting ports and stuff like that. Now, where's AOS4?

Hardware is real. Unfortunately, it blows goats spending $$$ on a Linux platform inferior to any x86 setup you could get for the same amount of money. Not that Linux cares. It behaves just about the same either way (did last time I checked anyway).

The ROM is actually the BIOS. These boards don't need any "April", "March" or whatever fix. They have the new sillicon revision of the Articia S chipset.
Look out, I\'ve got a gun
