...still no Dragon for sale and still no pictures of any kind. Any thoughts on this? Will Dragon meet it's release date? I am kind of sceptical that in 5-6 days we'll actually see something. Elbox, please prove me wrong. :-)

What a cute Dragon...
I think they'll be late.
-
Did they say what year? Perhaps they've taken a page from the Eyetech/Amiga Inc./Hyperion marketing plan.
-
this dragon thingie would be nice, if it had at least one zII/III slot + video slot, I really do not want to have monitor switchers or stuff like that... and if it had an on-board IDE controller too...

While we´re at it where did this http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=45781 (http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=45781) go?
ACK Software Controls, Inc. is pleased to announce two new products for the Amiga 1200. The first product is a Freescale 8245 based CPU card clocked at 400 MHz.
Products are presently in prototype form running Linux and will be available in Q1 2005. Additional information will follow in the new year.
I haven´t seen any pictures or anything yet.

They are going for the hyperion aproach it,s a case of when its done. :-D :-)

Moaning, moaning, moaning...
I think we should be happy that there is still somebody (Elbox) producing new Amiga stuff....

Maybe you should ask on the official dragon community website :-D But who needs a coldfire anyway.. I just hope the ack boards don't turn out to be vapour.. And I think I will rather see my amiga tshirt(still NOT here!) arriving than the release of the dragon..

rayt:
I agree. I'd rather have an ACK board, but I'm also very curious about the Dragon. I'd like to at least see how it would physically look. I'd also like to know exactly how really compatible with 68k software it would be.

Four more days....:-).

I think that's the point of the "moaning". They're not "producing new Amiga stuff..."; they're just rattling off promise after promise (Shark and Dragon) without actually producing anything.

And as I previously feared, it finally happened.

A riot in Krakow, in front of Elbox HQ, due to unreleased details in regards to the Dragon 1200 expansion.

(http://pl.indymedia.org/images/2004/04/4881.jpg)
Here we see Karlos, furious at the present state of affairs, throwing what appears to be a rock at the police. After running out of socks, he was forced to use rocks, just like everybody else involved in the riot.

Just terrible...Krakow will never be the same, thanks to Dragon 1200 expansion being late, or even non-existant, who knows?

Yeah - but they weren't as good. Though he tried his hardest, my erstwhile kinsman Bloodline couldn't keep me in ammunition. Alas the poor guy was completely spent after the first few sockalov cocktails.
Some strange guy in the background was hurling abuse in an extraordinarily fake Scottish accent, something like "Where's ma shark, eh? Ah did'ne wait three feckin' years...."
Chaos. Utter chaos...
-
Well, if they do have it, they better hurry up. I'm dying to get my "Enter the Dragon" quip over and done with :lol:

This is not my car. This is a Trabant of Mr. E3B! :lol:
Mr. E3B came to Krakow to demand the warranty support for his 5th-hand Mediator board bought on Ebay. On his Trabant parked at the Elbox office, there was a big label "angry underprivileged Elbox user," which caused madness in fanatic mediator users, who put fire on that Trabant unit. :-P

How dare you guys! This is copyrighted material you just revealed the new plotline of a major motion picture sequel..
The producers of Team America: Two-the Krakow Crackdown will now hunt you down and well all I can say is...
It ain't gonna be pretty.. And you thought they got that "R" rating for the barbie/puppet sex...

Wrong. It is a Trabant (other cars are made of steel, and they do not burn as good as this famous plastic car), for sure, but I wouldn't dare to go to Poland with a car, not even with an old Trabant :-P

I can fully understand that you are somehow confused... but even with Elbox policy of counting the dealer as 1st hand user I miss your "five".

Argl. No. Wrong again... maybe you had too much Grasowka yesterday. The label noted "Talk to me. I'm underpriviledged." and is printed on the T-Shirts I usually wear at user meetings or trade shows.
By the way, guys: anyone interested in a T-shirt? Delivery on time guaranteed, good quality, with full colour printing as noted above. And it is available - not vapourware like some animals known as Shark and Dragon :-)
Moreover, if interested, I will put some pictures online of the wearable prototype :-)

A strange sense of humour dude... is it normal in Poland that people with different opinions are treated this way? :-?

I'd also like to see a picture of a prototype. Hey, programmers are working on drivers, but what are they programming on? I'd be proud to show a picture, and secure future customer's interest.
Those excuses are starting to get absurd. Snap a "work in progress" pic, or live with people who express their doubts.
