Title: Silence is truly Golden with new IMICA and Aros, now shipping only £199
Post by: clusteruk on June 29, 2010, 10:03:52 AM
ClusterUK ltd is pleased to launch the new silent IMICA, a nice small unit to run Aros, and is perfect where you do not want to be disturbed by noisy computers. Great for the Amiga fan who wants a low cost and reasonably high performance unit that is fully Aros native. For £199 you get a fully working unit with a 4gb USB drive and 512mb ram, later upgrade with bigger internal drive unit if needed, either a normal 2.5" laptop drive or a totally silent 2.5" SSD drive unit. Because of the low weight, under 2kg Shipping to Europe is only £20 !!

Good news + and a good price, especially given how good AROS is these days! Thanks for the heads up!

Man, if I could use a remote control for this, and especially if somebody ported XBMC to AROS, I'd buy this in a heart-beat and stick it under my TV.

That Imica looks great! Too bad I don't need another computer at home...

Very nice congratulations Steve. I think one of this with a good sized cf card would be awesome and so cool that it would be completely silent.
 
My windows computer is always wining, it gets on my nerves.

Thanks for nice comment.

We have a media player coming called AMC from Ares for Aros machines including IMICA. On remote control, should be possible.

I don't know much about remote controls on computers at all, but a quick Google search showed this:

http://www.1topstore.com/product_info.php?language=en¤cy=GBP&products_id=5819

It looks like it identifies itself as a keyboard, in which case it should work already! You might need the programs to use different keys than the defaults, but I'd guess a quick recompile would be all it takes..? You may even be able to use FKey to substitute keypresses, so it would work straight away....
