just awesome:pint: Trevor/ A-Eon always did say that any further new hardware developments would solely rely on the sales of the X1000 so :pint:to all involved from beta-testers, developers, A-Eon, Amigakit, ACube, sponsors, and more importantly the end users who to this day still believe in their favourite OS:knuddel:

I'm still not getting why they bother with dual-core when OS4 doesn't support SMP?

Probably because the dual core chip doesn't cost much more than the single core and people might want to use it for more than just OS4.

To run AROS of course. ;)

AROS supports SMP? How do they manage that stably without memory protection?

Freescale processor is a good choice for PPC, they pretty much own the market.

Did I say AROS? Sorry I must have meant Linux or something.

I bet the 2.7GHz Dual Processor G5 Macs wipe the floor with it.

A P5020 development system board runs US$4000.  The processor runs US$317 in quantities of 1000 in the States.  You are in embedded systems territory, and that is an expensive place to be.  We'll just have to see.

i don't understand why they want to insist on new hardware if X1000 don't have yet full support audio, video, pci-xpress 3D accelation, Xena and Xorro.

Or the other core (as far as I know).

Is the 460 fully supported yet?  I don't really keep up with OS4 stuff these days.

CPU link:

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=P5020#

The cache size is the most disappointing for me.
I'm sure Amiga could make do with x1 PCI-express graphics card. You could add extra sata or USB via the PCI-express slots.
It's still a toy unless they upgrade the peripheral options. Can't they add that in the design phase?

So is this new machine less powerful than the X1000 then?
