How will Hyperion continue the momentum?

Intel atom board for £67
PPC G3 500mhz £31.15
DDR2 2GB £51.69 (ddr2 is going up in price, it's OLD)
Mini atx case £30
500GB SATA £40
dvdrw pata £25
Keyboard and mouse £8
AmigaOS 4.1 £108.30
Total price: £361.14 Pound Sterling.

A weak ppc (but not by much), I know, but there are faster ones out there and at any rate, they can MAKE a ppc card if they want to for less than an entire motherboard. That's MUCH cheaper than a SAM setup from amigakit, with twice the ram too. I've even totaled in a keyboard and mouse like amigakit do. Hell, a SAM motherboard ALONE costs more than this!

New Vs Second hand, and the solution I quoted has two processors available. Also the ram and HDD on that sucks nuts out of the box.

Imaginary Vs Real.

Several people actually obtained those setups and will soon run MorphOS on them.

Obviously RAM and HDD can be upgraded for additional cost if needed.

It might be fun to support WarpOS at least. I don't know what sort of connectivity the machine is supposed to have but if it has PCI then I suppose one of those Sonnet cards could be used if an appropriate WarpOS module could be implemented for it.

There has also been pleasant sounding noises about doing exactly that with a sonnet card. Though given that the design is REALLY compatible with the 1200 and 4000 (can use either kickstart) it would probably just be a couple of days hacking to get OS 4.0 to run on it once a sonnet card is supported for warpOS

You guys are really cracking me up... :laughing:
