Hyperion/A-EON introduce us to the AmigaOne X1000. A new beginning?

[Piru]

oops. mispost (replied to very old post)

[Piru]

Not to be devil's advocate or anything but with the announcement that MorphOS will now support the G5 systems, will this machine be worth the money?

Good question, indeed.

To illustrate the point: I could get 4 (including MorphOS licenses to each) dual-G5 2.5GHz systems for price of one X1000 (assuming conservative £1500 price, not "north of"). Most often these systems also include Mac OS X which also is a nice bonus.

[Piru]

those who want os4 won't buy a g5 mac.

Clearly not. But those who objectively compare MorphOS and OS4 might actually get MorphOS instead, especially when the hardware is so much more affordable.

on a g5 mac won't run win7

I'm not quite sure how that is related, but indeed PowerPC hasn't been able to run windows since Windows NT 3.51.

if i want a red "apple" why have i to buy a yellow one?

Yellow ones are better and 1/4 the price.

it's a matter of taste.

You have expensive taste.

[Piru]

Im curious though, where or when did you notice this? It's not an everyday sort of observation

Alas, no A1200 accelerators matching the search :-)

[Piru]

Has Varisus said anything about Nemo board as hadrware partner?

I haven't. Has anyone seen anything at all from Varisys, ever?

A-EON about deliveriing the boards?

No word since January 1st 2011:

AmigaOne X1000 Beta Testers should take delivery of their revision 2 Nemo motherboards during the first quarter of 2011 and all being well, commercial system will be available shortly afterwards.

Hyperion about them porting OS4 to Beta version for X1000?

I haven't heard anything since last year. I haven't been paying attention, though.

[Piru]

If there is still Vesalia X1000 page, there is hope!

Where is the page? I can't find it.

I can see a page for Elbox Dragon though...

[Piru]

a) Yes, there are Varisys products, a lot of them.

But haven't heard anything at all from them regarding X1000 or "Nemo board".
