Commodore Amiga Mini

[dammy]

Sneak Preview of the new Commodore Amiga Mini is at http://www.commodore-amiga.org with a press release to be released sometime next week on hardware details and shipping dates.

No, this is not the big announcement.

The picture link is broken.

The link to commodore-amiga.org site worked OK for me, just scroll down to the news section.

Let's have some specs and prices.

That should be next week.

Doesn't look like the Dell mini, we installed a bunch of them in offices around the uni and they're more colourful.  Probably some chinese local market clone.

It's not a bad choice at all for the first Commodore Amiga being released in 20 years.

[dammy]

Oh, so it is an Amiga? Sweet, I can't wait to pop my Workbench 3.1 disks into the...into the...now just a damn minute here...

LOL, I must admit, that was pretty funny.  Floppies in 2012?  Hehe, guess one absolutely has to, they can buy a Catweasel.  I suspect only a few floppies will be readable after 20+ years. Perhaps once the C= Application Store goes online, some of the old software publishers could be convinced to put their software in the C= Application Store for a buck or so.

[dammy]

The majority of floppies I've ever encountered (not the vast majority, but still definitely the majority) read just fine, as long as they weren't kept in a garage or a moldy basement.

When was the last time you tried a floppy that hasn't been accessed in 20+ years?

More junk from a joke of a company. This has nothing to do with amiga. I doubt these guys have even owned a real amiga in their time.I guess they might of seen one on the Tee-Vee once. :laughing:

You would be wrong then.  Commodore Amiga is their future, if you don't like it, don't buy it.

[dammy]

I'm not buying it. But if you mean "this is the ultimate argument and you must shut up now," not a chance.

So you are going to continue to troll in this thread?

[dammy]

Where is the "big announcement"?  

On tract, just taking longer then some had expected.    Lawyers get paid by the hour after all.

[dammy]

That's no excuse.
Product announcements aren't a legal contract.

Who said it was a product?

Possible customization changes to the Commodore Amiga Mini: http://www.commodore-amiga.org/forum/5-commodore-amiga-hardware-wishlist-/10991-cusa-commodore-amiga-concept-designs?limit=15&start=135&lang=en#12190

I think this version is much nicer looking.

[dammy]

Also, embossed logos and laser etching? On a prefab case? Get real.

So you have the same opinion on the A1X1K and the A500X cases since they are also prefab cases?

Update:  I talked to Barry this afternoon, Press Release should be issued by the end of next week.  This is giving extra time for technical testing to make sure things work as expected.
