Way to get more support in the amiga community, picking on the little guy.

These were the slap an amiga sticker on a zpc and no one will know we didn't make these computer hippocrites.

I think we should start a fund to give everyone who buys one of these cases a free amiga sticker. I'd happily contribute to that.

Any idea about how much these cases will cost and when they will be available?



It's ok, editing the video right now, a bit of a pain as I have to photoshop all the images (at least I do a better job than some) :) if people could update the link to other sites that would be great, it will save me some time...

Still waiting to hear about the keyboards, DVD-RW, SATA cable and 3.5" card reader pricing, then I'll crunch some numbers and let you know...

Sorry about the delay...

Glad that you're not being disheartened by the bullies!

If I get enough money together when it's out I may well get one myself.. the only real question is whether to put my Sam in it or to put a MiniITX PC in it and run AROS.
Argh - decisions, decisions!

Remember - non illegitimi carborundum - and they can yell and scream as much as they like, but the fact remains they only license the name Amiga, they have no rights to harass you.

Keep up the good work and keep us informed on progress!



Thanks...just for a moment I'd have liked to know how it feels being on the receiving end... ;)

Posted a message over at the Firebee forum at Atari-Forum.com. Figured widening the audience for your great case can't hurt.


That is great, much appreciated! :)

Well done to Barry for his stance on this.

We can't have people putting in anything that's actually related to the Amiga in an Amiga branded case.

That would just lead to madness.

Bollocks, they have done it for revenge as CTO Leo himself admitted.

The case was NEVER going to come with ANY logo, sticker or adhesives, that was to give people ideas...illustration purposes only remember?

I wasn't serious.
I was just having a cheap dig at their Amiga branded boxes running Linux instead of a real Amiga (like) OS.



I see... :)

My apologies then, without smilies it sounded like dig at me...this is stressing me out. :D

Sorry again...

Does anyone think it would be a good idea to move the LEDs to the left instead of centrally?

Can't do right as it fouls the memory on the x86 board and the picoPSU on the SAM460...

If you think about it the X500 is all reversed

 :D compared to the A500

Drives on the left too...

Opinions?

Thanks

Thank you for letting me know...

They would look like this:


Alternative LEDs position (on the left).

Thoughts?

OK...getting more feeback here:

http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=35607&start=80&post_id=664797&order=0&viewmode=flat&pid=0&forum=33#664797

What about silks creening the  X500 PLUS in the centre (or left) rear of the top? (Does that make sense?

:)
