What is a X500-F?

What is a X500-F?
It's my latest design...an Amiga 500 inspired case :-)
-
For standard (small) motherboards? Sounds interesting...
-
Cool. What type of a motherboard is it geared for? All the ATX-type sizes?
-
I don't understand why you keep being such a tease like this. It's not building up hype, it's just annoying people.

Mini-itx and flex-atx, NO micro-atx and no full atx, they are much too big.

Sorry it's not my intention to tease...not anymore :-)
I can't show the full thing yet as I am still waiting for two panels (rear, I had to make some modifications, I have just received the backplates for my SAMs motherboards by ACube) and the right side (where a DVD-RW should fit).

Nice nice nice! In that case I'm excited. I was looking at building an AROS machine anyhow, and an A500 type case would be lovely!

Good! :-)
There is also a space for a logo/sticker so you can put whatever you like there saying "AROS", "LINUX", "AMIGA" etc...etc...:-)

Oh Jesus I thought Hypey Ron was gonna start with more of this 'What is X' bullshit again.
Every time I see the letter X these days it freaks me out.

Thanks Klx,
It's taken about four years, it started as a replacement case for the A1200 then the SAM mini-itx came out so I redesigned it to take mini-itx boards then the SAM flex came out... :)

If you are intent on building an AROS machine, in an A500 like keyboard chassis, might I suggest the all-in-one-keyboard from Commodore. http://www.commodoreusa.net

That's not actually the modern commodore though. That one trades as commodore gaming and they sell c64 stuff on the iPhone.
-
So whatever happened to this case anyway?

Hi,
it's on hold...
1) CommodoreUSA are doing just what I am working on so a bit of a problem there
2) Not many people seemed interested in it anyway, you are the only one who has enquired in seven months :-)

@ thedaddy
Sorry, we were waiting on the full picture.

I am sorry that I haven't kept anyone up to date but it looks like CommodoreUSA has got it all sorted so I don't want it to be a disappointment.
Obviously I'll post any news here if CUSA don't deliver :-)
-
You are waiting for Godt then.
-
I know that commodore USA were planning to sell the PC64 case by itself but i haven't heard about a Amiga case which could house the Sam or Natami etc...?
Any info on this?
