Well speaking about hardware that never made it past the prototype stages for one reason or another:

SharkPPC by Elbox
ColdFire by Elbox
PowerVixxen by Ack Controls
A5000 by Power Computing
ABOX by Phase 5
A630 by Individual Computers
Clone-A by Individual Computers
NatAmi by the NatAmi Team
Amiga Walker by Amiga technologies Gmbh
BoXer by (I cant remember)
Moana Project by Amiga Inc & Hyperion

and the list could go on forever...

@Hell labs

My goal is not to hurt your feelings and kill your hopes, but like i said, none of those projects has left the prototype stages and unluckily are bound to stay that way. In other words for how long has the manufacturers/designers of those stuff been promising that the sale will start?
Lets be reasonable, work has been done in most of these projects, but reality shows us, they never left the prototype stage, i dont deny how cool could that be.

@gavilan

I dont see your problems with Elbox, if you properly send them the registration code they ask for, they dont even take a day to send the drivers thru email. Another thing is that they are not an ethically correct company, fact which i agree. I still find it disturbing that they added malicious code on their spider driver and i find it disgusting the fact that you have to pay them to get drivers for the hardware you bought from them (yes, no more free upgrades for mediator users, you need to buy the MMCD)

@All

But that is the way we Amiga users are now: some of us holding on wishfull hardware projects, others trapped by companies we dont like, just because they are our only alternative.
I hope some day we end this vicious circle!
