The price will certainly be identical to the old model :-(

At least we'll have 3 prices to choose from, hopefully not something like 2500$, 3000$ and 3500$ or i'll keep my SAM460 for sure :P

Shades of the A5000 from Canada (was it Wonder Computer?)!  Though I never saw one in-person, I think the A5000 was just an upgraded A4000 from that company.

Well that makes little sense, jump from X1000 to X5000.

Seems like they are now trying to avoid Amiga product numbers.  That is a good thing.

No, it seems pointless.

It's just a product name - at least they went with what the community voted for.

I think the board will be cheaper than the Nemo.

The name is just a name, but I like the naming convention.

Well it makes more sense then going from XBox360 to XBox1.

Well using the A numbers with an X was confusing.  They got a lot of criticism from using the 1000 name, since the A1000 was state of the art cutting edge when it was introduced and the X1000 was far from it.

It's new hardware.  Running AmigaOS.  But still the community will find a million things to complain about, LOL.  Oh well, kudos, anyway!  :drink:

Well, one sane voice from amongst the fanatics.
Don't expect the legacy wackos to appreciate the new hardware.
Even if it can run circles around their beloved hardware, they hold tightly to their beliefs.

As to pricing, don't get your hopes up folks.
