Laptop ram isn't that expensive when you take into account of the top flight PC stuff (Rambus and the ultra fast ddr type cost).

I'm actually impressed if I'm honest with myself. Damn you Eyetech, I may well end up buying one of these things if you ain't careful!!!!!!!!! ;-)

My missus is going to go spare when I point this to her... something along the lines of "I thought you weren't going to buy another amiga?"

I doubt very much however that should I get this board, it will ever see OS4 on it though.

All I need now is to build myself a Walker shell and the thing shall be complete!  :-o


Damn the lad who mentioned mini-itx.com, I almost bought one of the boards off of them. Would make a nice little bsd/linux box. £75 for a complete system.... insane!

Argh! They should not aim BELOW XBOX specs!!

XBox on paper uses a Geforce4 chip, in reality this chip runs at the same speed as a Geforce2mx....

I'm not 100% certain but I think that the chip in the A1 is in the same ball park performance wise.

I'll have to go find some info on this to backup this though...

on with the show :-D

it crash....never seen a console in my life that actually crashed! unless the medium was broken.

I've seen playstations and Dreamcasts crash on odd occations. But not so often as to wonder but for a moment before carrying on where you left off.

XBox.... games here in the uk are STILL £10 than for the equivilent game for the gamecube or ps2... what good is a cheep console if you're going to be taking it up the backside (not litterally obviously) every time you buy a game?

That and its plain ugly, not to mention it wieghs more than my water cooled athlon pc. Carrying it from the shop to your car has been known to injure peoples backs!!! (OK I can't back that up but I'd not be suprised at all if it did).

this site has moved on to mos only for quite a while now

Hmm, smells like BS to me, given that this is a news item about *shock* *horror* an amiga!!!!
 
@ Everyone
Amiga.org as far as news sites go is fairly unbiased, covering whatever comes out when it comes out, it's just that Gensai seem to be more active at the moment.

I say fair play to Eyetech for comming up with this, and to Amiga.org for proving my long standing belief in them, and shame on the people here who are helping this polarisation to continue regardless of which side of the fence you sit on.

@the moderators

I'm sorry if this seems a little flamey, its just that I feel that a lot of the flack comming from certain quarters of the comunity is utterly unjustified(and utterly stupid)  given what A.org have done for the comunity in keeping it  informed.

Mod away if you feel necesary, I feel better now  :-D
