AmigaOne X1000 specs:

"Xena" 500MHz XMOS XS1-L1 128 SDS (  won't be used for anything )
ATI Radeon R700 graphics card ( old )
2GB RAM ( not enough )
500GB Hard drive ( small )
22x DVD combo drive ( *yawn* )
customised case, keyboard and mouse ( who cares? )
7.1 channel HD audio ( standard ho hum stuff )
Ports and connectors:

4x DDR2 RAM slots (*yawn*)
10x USB 2.0 ( lotsa ports for all those devices that have no driver )
1x Gigabit Ethernet (standard stuff)
2x PCIe x16 slots (1x16 or 2x8) (ho hum)
2x PCIe x1 slots ( neet-o )
1x Xorro slot ( that's one hole that will never loose its virginity )
2x PCI legacy slots
2x RS232 (
4x SATA 2 connectors
1x IDE connector
JTAG connector
1x Compact Flash (who cares?)

So at the end of the day we have an expensive, "high end" ho-hum machine with an operating system that's less sophisticated than Windows 98. We should all celebrate how far Amiga has come over the years. Oh wait, it's not an Amiga, it's an "Amiga One X 1000" running Hyperion OS. My bad.

To loosely quote another guy on the scene, "I hope they make lots of 'em".

Now just need time to brace for the MSRP sticker shock of this X-1000 thing

You got that right buddy.

Below is an AOS4 user properly braced for the sticker shock regarding the A1X1K:

The dick sliding into your browser is so freaking appropriate. Bend over all ye AOS4 faithfuls. They didn't design it this way by accident, I guarantee you.

[koaftder]

Just wondering.. which Amiga systems do you actually like or use?

I like all the classic machines for sure. I have a pile of a1ks a 3k a 12k and some others. A1k is my favorite though. Use UAE a lot and have Aros on two hobby pc's.

wow..this is what amiga.org has come to:furious: :rolleyes:

I cracked a joke about the silly design of that website, and you have to admit, it really is silly. Is this really the end of the world, this one joke about the graphics?

[koaftder]

You guys are whiners. I wrote the comment about the sticker shock with the monkey because it's my opinion that AOS4 users are getting taken for their money with all this A-Eon crap. It's also why I wrote the "bend over" comment as well.

FYI:
- IMO it's 100% sure that AOS4 will have all the needed xcore developer tools

Spoken like a true zealot who's never seen xmos hardware, never used the tools and doesn't know squat about the situation regarding the XC compiler or the company and developer community using the product. Bravo. Keep praying dude.
