I don't believe its a hoax. Adam is an OS4 betatester, and was also involved with the Micro-A1 hardware.

new cpu card with gfx card, ide controller and Ram so for what the A1200 is needed ?
I can think of joystick, mouse, sound, psu.


The original chipset? That way you get the best of both worlds. A PowerPC CPU faster than the Blizzard, without a 68k for context switching nightmares, and access to the original chipset to run some software that would require E-UAE on the A1.

On the other hand, old Amigas are dying... The A1 is more of a future investment.

So... something for everybody ;-)
