a1 in one of those mini cube things would be sweet with the original amiga badge blasted all over the sides and neon lights inside showing off all of its glory through the transparent lid... :-)

dunno about in an a1200 case tho, would it fit? nah, leave the a1200 as a classic miggy :-)

True.. no boxes then

Make it in the shape of a boing ball, kinda like one of those apple macs but totally round so it falls off the desk :-)

If they are going to do it, it should be in true a1200 style. i never liked the a600, way too small and flimsy, a1200 is def the best lookin "small miggy". i like'd the old a2k, dunno why heh big an chunky :-)

Maybe a500 style, slightly smaller on the back and maybe a bit taller instead to accomidate the new ports. It should definatley have a built in ethernet port, usb etc all the usual stuff plus some amiga- only ports for those amiga only prepherals so we can show micro$oft they aint the only "make it difficult for everyone else" company :-)

Kev :-D

Nah make it roll of the desk. After all if we want the amiga to over take the PC then, surley we have to adapt its most famous feature. The ability to fall over...? heh heh sorry...

I dont think it should look like a CDTV - thats nice but a bit old fashioned... It should be based on practicality rather than looks, damm i wish someone had thought of that before they made my pc, ie all wires on back so its hard to plug stuff in without ripping all my desk apart. Not sure about the boing logo stuff, i prefered the old a-tick logo, that should def be brought back... for both lookin cool and also a hint of retro styling on the modern amiga. Maybe add some interesting features to the a1 that nothing else has.. let me think.. maybe uh i dunno but if i think of something i will def post it here. Just make sure it has ethernet built in makes networking so much easier :-)

Cheers

Maybe an internal PSU like one of those "on a card" psu, kinda like the PSX one. That would fit :-)

Not too sure about the OS4 date, i know its well late tho...

never mind

Good things come to those who wait eh? You only gotta look at Micro$oft products to prove that.

Kev :-D

ps. id rather wait and get more bugs off it than head in at the deep end lol
