Title: AmigaOne X1000 Case - Can you buy it?
Post by: Tajmaster on October 22, 2010, 03:40:03 PM

Hi all

I was wondering, is it possibile to by the AmigaOne X1000 case seperatley? I need a new case for my PC and would like to house it in this one :)

Much like the AmigaOne mouse and keyboard are sold by AmigaKit, it would be good if they sold this too. At a good price though, I wouldnt pay more than 40 or 50 quid for it, maybe a bit more if the front is all brushed metal.

It's the Black Pearl case from Fractal Design, I think the boing logo is photoshopped though, I guess the real machines will just come with the standard case

Yes it's available to purchase as it is a standard pc case but i don't think you can get it with the boing ball as a-eon will only supply it with the x1000.

edit: Yes you will be able to buy it with boing ball and without x1000 logo according to this link http://obligement.free.fr/articles_traduction/itwdickinson_en.php

danwood, the case is engraved in real life now (not just photoshop).  There was one with a boing ball on display at the AmigaZoom event in Switzerland.  It looks just like the mockup, except the AmigaOne X1000 logo looks less sticky-onny than it did in the photoshop graphic.
