anyone notice the board has no sata ports only what appears to be single ide header? the new chip to me seems likely an opencl hander-accelerator for amiga os.
Uhm, it has 4 SATA ports and one IDE header. 10 USB ports, 1 gigabit ethernet port, 7.1 sound, compact flash, many PCIe, 2 PCI, Xorro slots and much more.....
Anyone see this?

Power ISA v.2.04
The specification for Power ISA v.2.04[9] was finalized in June 2007. It is based on Power ISA v.2.03 and includes changes primarily to the Book III-S part regarding virtualization, hypervisor functionality, logical partitioning and virtual page handling.
Compliant cores
* Cores that comply with the Power ISA v.2.03
* The PA6T core from P.A. Semi
* Titan from AMCC
Titan AMCC anybody? -
Suports up to 4 cores
Manufacturered on the cheaper 90nm CMOS process and other cost reductions
Design allows for dual cores at under 15watts power consumption
"The first implementations of the Titan core design. Two 1.5 GHz cores with FPU, 512 kB shared L2 cache, DDR2 controller, security engine, multi-channel DMA and I/O engine for gigabit Ethernet, PCIe, USB, RapidIO and/or SATA. It began sampling in October 2009"
Titan AMCC more specifications -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titan_%28microprocessor%29I'd say that fits with what they say on the a-eon site - "The AmigaOne X generation will come with a variety of CPUs, conforming to the Power ISA 2.04 and newer standards. The X1000 processor currently has very limited availability, and you've probably never seen one in the wild, so don't worry too much about it. For now, please be content with knowing that it's a dual-core Power Architecture™ CPU, with a very low Thermal Design Point. For reference, our designers have been running the cores at 1.6GHz during thermal testing, but this isn't the exact nominal clock speed."
Since the Titan just started shipping limited quantities in October of 2009, is dual-core, has a very low thermal design point - the clock speed could be at 1.6Ghz but the cores are rated to 2Ghz currently. Sounds like a contender to me. ;^)
a-eon site - "Just as Commodore did with the A1000, we're aiming at the high-end first, with a powerful desktop computer aimed at the professional and serious hobbyist markets (although you won't have to wait until summer, and it should be a little cheaper!)"
Commodore Amiga 1000 Price: US $1295 without monitor (So under $1295 for those asking about price.)
