So, will you just stop whining now?

Not yet. Why does no one show the thing working yet? You made 5 videos just to unbox it (yawn) but never bothered to turn it on? Who cares about a box? Let's see it working.

I know it's just a PC in there, but that's pretty damn cool.

As I've said more than once, It's not really my cup of tea but at the end of the day, it's a real product that they got to market. You have to give them credit for at least that much.

I dare say It'll probably sell reasonably well too.

Big farkin' deal, you can say the same thing for Michael Bay's Transformers movies, but that doesn't make them good.

As for the OP, big whoop. It's a thing that you bought, and it came in a box, and you took it out of the box. Bully for that, I guess, but the question of whether this was real or not has never been more than a minor nitpick in the saga of why folks around here are not fond of CUSA.

This was your 1st post. So you joined this site just to show us your new non Amiga computer? Are you really that desperate for approval?

I keep seeing people say that but, I'm not sure what you are comparing it to when you say that?

If you want OS4 buy a Sam, If you want MorphOS buy a Mac, if you want Aros get a PC?

I'm comparing it to the expectation that it would never happen, which was quite a pervasive opinion not that long ago.

OK, that makes sense. I guess I didn't get it because I never really had a doubt that they would put it out. I've just been so verbal about it because they've been dicks the whole time......

credit to Dell, HP, Gateway, Acer and the guy down the street who makes his own PC from barebones kits too then?  ;-)

I thing the sales will dry up after using the keyboard for a month and experiencing Bazza style tech support.

Only 6, so 194,000 to go!  Wonder if they have mold #2 in production yet.

I did not that in one of the videos, the guy shows the fan and mentions that it has been running constantly. Also, remarks that the computer runs a bit hot.
