Missed out on the x1000 systems, but I'm making up for it now.

I can't wait to get my hands on an AmigaOne system!


Congratulations!

There is nothing better then to run OS on hardware it was made for. Enjoy and keep us updated.

I hope you will like it. I'm still staying in "classic" world, building my own "Red ONE" ;).

I see the X5K as the final stage of most power miggie NG for many years to come.  I sense that is it for A-Eon making bigger faster and they will work on getting Tabor out the door to the masses.

Maybe in years from now when Amiga OS 4.2 comes out, they will go past X5K but I think that will be long from now.


It also think the same. In same way X5K is way more then we can handle at the time. We need software to make this computer useful. It is like having access to super computer but no way to use it.

I personally will stick with my A1200 Classic and someday will get A1222. That way I will keep my "old way" and pick up some new to keep ball rolling...

So since 2005, we've moved from a quad core 2.5 GHz 64 bit system with AltiVec in a standard FPU  on a board that supported 32 PCI-E lanes to a 1.2 GHz dual core 32 bit system with a non-standard fpu on a board with what about 5 PCI-E lanes (might be a few more, I haven't checked).
And this is the 'progress' that's going to carry us into the future.
Somewhere Jay Miner is laughing his ass off.:hammer:

When I want amazing hardware I'm going to use PC (sorry people!).

Unfortunately I have ZERO influence on this what kind of hardware will be produced for AmigaOS (or any hardware produced for any Amiga!), so if A1222 will be available for good price, I will get it to have something to run AmigaOS4.1 with reasonable speed.

Blizzard PPC was released 20 years ago, AmigaOS4.1 "few years" ago, this system should be delivered with Blizzard PPC. So, when you search for "reasonable"... .

Additionally, I have not idea what X1000 vs X5000 is different "that way". I'm not behind this decision, and most likely this is what is POSSIBLE today. So, I'm happy with this what is POSSIBLE and most likely reasonable at this moment :). I actually can buy NEW hardware for AmigaOS! AMAZING.

AND you lower your carbon footprint (save a squirrel...or a monkey or something).

CO2 is primary food for plants :), so... let the grow so I can eat them and I forgot to add we are all carbon based. ALL. :).

I'm waiting for A1222. I hope it will be nice and AVAILABLE for purchase for longer time.

Supposedly, there’s going to be a replacement front cover for this case to make more Amiga-esque.


In the past people were waiting for... back plates. Now, it is time for something NEW. Lets wait for front covers! ;)
