AmigaOne X1000 First Contact Latest Batch

[AmigaNG]

One thing I think people forget (which I pointed out on amigworld) is because this is a unique system and not just a second hand mac or pc the value of it will remain quite high, I'm pretty sure if i wanted to I could sell my X1000 for close to the price I bought it and this is after a years plus worth of use out of it, for many other systems this would not be the case. If you really think of it this way the X1000 might only cost you a few hundred quid as I'm sure you be able to get most of the money back when/if you want to sell the unit, so grab one, who knows the value might go up, it did with Eyetech boards.

I do partly agree with you, I would like to see the price point entry for AmigaOS4 hardware much lower, I'm just pointing out that you could try out OS4 and not worry to much about the huge investment because the second hand market for OS4 hardware you usually get a good return.

PS I dont want to come across as a OS4 fanboy as i see it we have a low cost entry to the next gen amiga and that is Aros, I really liking Aros, specially the last few version its getting nearly as good as AmigaOS4, I enjoy both so you really cant afford OS4, Aros is the way to go.
