Post by: wackedout on February 12, 2006, 12:32:52 PM

Has any one seen the thread on amiga world about a guy called allen redhouse who plans to release a new amiga one board called  A1lite  which is a amiga one micro board but cheaper.He says he will rlease it next year.

Unless something new has developed in the past day or so, this is oooooooooooold news. Alan Redhouse is the owner/director of Eyetech, who introduced the AmigaONE to the market. The A1Lite was the working title for the board that was eventually released as the microA1-C.

From what I understand, Eyetech will no longer be producing any Amiga stuff inhouse (barring a multi-thousand unit order from some IT company seeking Linux boxes - unlikely with the A1 line due to issues with Linux), though they are the hardware license holder, so I think they sign off on whatever new stuff is being developed - the PowerVixxen and Troika board at the moment.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, I couldn't find that thread. Btw, here's something you should know :
Alan Redhouse is Eyetech Co.
Eyetech is official A1 manufacturer/distributor
AmigaWorld is the official forum for A1 & OS4.

so if there was a plan for A1 lite, I think it would definitely be a news item there on the mainpage. However I don't see any talk about this overthere at all.

edit : ahh I was late. sorry for the useless post
