A-EON Technology CVBA and Varisys Ltd Announce Partnership

[Pyromania]

Varisys are also known for producing PA Semi processor boards.

I speculated that the CPU for the X1000 would be a PASemi PA6T (or similar) when it was first announced, but it seemed unlikely given that PASemi were pretty much bought out by apple.

The plot thickens :lol:

It's Military Spec, Doomy is going to poo himself.

Just to be clear we will not tolerate extreme slander against A-Eon on Amiga.org. Or against AROS or MorphOS for that matter. Offenders will be banned until 1 Yottabyte SSD's are common.

You mean Yobibyte in base2?

YB = Computer storage equal to one septillion (one long scale quadrillion or 1024) bytes (one quadrillion gigabytes).

If it's based in fact it's not slander. Amiga.org is a very easy going community and we try and not be forum police. Everyone can form their own opinion about matters and enjoy healthy debate about Tech topics. If it becomes hurtful or slanderous to members or compaines then a mod may have to step in. Common sense and respect for others goes a long way.

Unfortunately they would need to call Microsoft, not IBM. I very much doubt M$ would be that happy to sell the CPU to outsiders.

If you'd be talking to IBM to create something similar to Xenon... well then you'd need to have some serious financial backing I believe.

What they could do instead is source that CPU from RRoD Xbox 360's headed to land fills. There should be an ample supply of those for at least a 1000 years.

You do realize I was kidding right?
