But it's the same old song and dance.  I was told I'd be impressed by my PegII, then by the X1000 and now by the X5000.  Performance wise these systems were all years behind off-the-shelf solutions that were available at the time and cost 2 to 3 times more as well.

Do enlighten us, how is it years behind? Sure it does not have USB3, but not much hardware really use it.

One question, not only adressed at you, but all the naysayers, who constantly tells us how far behind amiga is and how ancient it is, why are you here?
A-EON wons this site and other amiga sites, A-EON is mainly NG hardware. I am just puzzled why some one would spend so much time being negative.

Being a cheerleader for Hyperion isn't going to get you a better OS4.

Neither is the opposite

How many years ago did they promise to deliver multi-processor support and stable USB?  I think I've been hearing that since 2004.

Sure but it was not relevant before the X1000, besides the guys behind it are not counted by the hundred.

Hans has made great strides in the 3D graphics department but the Amiga is still years behind other operating systems in graphics and the areas I mentioned.

If you settle for mediocrity, then that's what you'll end up with.

Yes that is why you have windows and mac. If all you do is stick to mainstream, then what you end up with is nothing special.

What's wrong with demanding a better product and calling someone out for broken or unfulfilled promises?

Uhhmm they stop producing products.

But all of the above is software, what I was asking about, and what was written about, was the hardware.

And again I ask you, why are you even here? If all you want to do is complain, then take it some where else.

You're living on another planet if you think NG Amiga's can hold a candle to off-the-shelf systems available today in either hardware performance or software.

But what is missing? you still havent answered.

 If either of these systems could compete in the market place, they would be doing so right now.  I complain because I'm tired of cheerleaders like you who want me to believe that NG Amiga's are such a fantastic piece of high tech.  They are not.

But then again, if you are tired of amiga NG talks on an amiga site, then why are you here?

Keep being the cheerleader and I will check back in another 12 years and see if that promise of multi-processor support was fulfilled.

I will hold you to that promis, but does that mean, we wont see you before those 12 years?
