ya know?  This actually sounds decent.  If it works out this way, I might have to take back some of my previous statements.  Hardware is still an issue, but still....  The PDF does look decent at first read....

Did that really say SMP?  When did they decide to support multiple processors? :-o

I havn't read all of it yet, but it looks REALLY good.
And it's OFFICIAL.

After what AmigaInc, Hyperion and EyeTek got from some PPL, I think they deserve an apology and a hand shake.

You guys forgot to mention one of  the most important improvements in my eyes:
Support for standards such as  DVD, MP3, fonts, grafic formats without 3rd-party patches and tools. Native USB and removable drives support. Have you seen that "VideoCD" thing? Even in M$ WindowsXP it's better to use 3rd party tools such as ASUS DVD2000 to watch VideoCDs and we have it built in.
I like the support for peripherals and drives very much.

GREAT WORK HYPERION!!!!!!!!!

Now it's time to release the product and Eyetech the AmigaOne.
I have already heard from Linux users, they are considering buying the AmigaOne, because they don't want to stick to Intel hardware anymore.

Well, it sure is good to see that everyone is still alive!

Haven't heard from Amiga Inc., Hyperion, or anyone else in a coon age.

Very nice!
