One thing I've learnt about any "new" Amiga technology is not to hold my breath. :) Though I probably would buy ASUS products they tend to be nicely spec'd.

@moderators: maybe a good idea to merge all posts on this subject? :-)

It's not a bad looking little rig but I'll say this straight up: they really, really missed the boat putting a PCI slot in there.  That should be a PCI-E slot, at least allowing users to throw in a performance graphics card (well at least somewhat higher performance).

But that's just me.

EDIT: now wait a sec, the specs PDF says that it IS a PCI-E but clearly in the photo it's a PCI...HM!  Somethin' weird goin' on here...

Edit: Never mind.  Pic shows a PCI and Mini-PCI.  Probably just an old pic then.
