New ppc board by Acube/A-Eon: A1222 "Tabor"

[Jezry]

Haha.
I did not just mean old games new ones as well.
And ofcourse browsing. Just saying there are alot of companys making boxes that could do that.
Maybe not with super 3d graphics and all the bells and whistles but still. Hell today almost everything can and  wants to be connected to the internet.
A small console like amiga under my tv is what i would want:laughing:

It's called CD32.

[wawrzon]

lol, Im sure you ment 2000 euros, .

.. in which case if the final price arrives after all the rumours under eur 1k,-- itll be considered cheap. relax!°!

[Jezry]

It's called CD32.

Yup it could be on my wishlist but its getting more and more expensive that also. And the controllers go for ridiculus money to.
So for now il stick with my old Amigas and my Aros pc.
Maybe in the future :-)

I would love a set top box thingy with amiga os on and games just autostart when you put them in.
Most people remembers amiga for games and they dont care if its wrong fpu. As long as it works.
I want a tabor if its in my pricerange.

Raspberry Pi with Amibian will boot directly into uae . I boot right into workbench with mine and choose games from a nice high resolution wb with Whdload hd installed games . Or do other WB tasks

It sounds like you want AROS running on a ps3.

[Jezry]

That would have been something but on xbox 360 :roflmao:
No  i meant a nice small custom case for something like tabor that would look great in the livingroom. I have Aros on a matx board in a nice case already..
The Console thingy or set top box was in the alternate timeline!

[Iggy]

Well if you just want to run old games, there are options like RetroPie and MIST.

The Tabor and X5000 are more for people who want to pretend they live in an alternative timeline where everyone uses NG Amigas

Nope, I just want a vacation from my PC hardware occasionally.
And I have legacy hardware if I want to run old games (although I do that primarily with a CD32).

@iggy/Bean/Jim (why so many names?)(hiding from the fires?)

I myself want a x5000 (see my other thread)
Really want a 5040 (grin)

But would buy a ALICE!

I asked Matt for a password reset on the first account last week, but I guess he forgot.

And you guys ought to know by now that I like controversies.

I don't know about Alice though, I already have laptops.

PS3 is the Amiga to the Xbox 360's ST.

[Iggy]

PS3 is the Amiga to the Xbox 360's ST.

?!
The processor in the XBOX360 was definitely easier to program for than the PS3's weird Cell BE layout with it satellite spes.
I really don't see your comparison, and besides the PS3 really needed more memory.

Both have in order execution which is kind of lame for a PPC. A 970MP from a PowerMac G5 will eat either of those alive.

Maybe we'll see the "1222" at AmiWest2016?

[AmigaOldskooler]

Maybe we'll see the "1222" at AmiWest2016?

That would be cool. I'm really hoping for some news on AmiWest concerning this computer.

[Everblue]

Let's hope for some interesting news
