This is exactly the type of thinking we need for Amigas.  The complete solution not just a Motherboard.  Whats wrong with specifying a mininum spec SE system a nice looking case which is dead silent (ie Segate Baraccuda H/D, Radeon 9200 (or even 9600 when the price is right) both have only passive heatsinks, Silent PSU, etc.

I'm looking forward to a Hush type system (see mentioned elsewhere) with an Amiga iATX board in it (G3 FX/GX will do!).  I've got case designs drawn up already if anyone is interested in producing 'em.

And all these comparisons between PPC vs x86, never compare like with like.  Lets see a comparison of G3/4 with Mobile CPUs like the Pentium 4-M and Pentium-M.  I'm possitive you would see Price/Performance ratios that are very close...(IMHO!)

BTW was I dreaming about iATX Amigas, I'm sure I heard this from Eyetech and now I can't find any mentions at all!  Please someone find me some info so I know I'm not completely insane!   :-D
