ACube Secret Revealed!

So what it all was about, was a bundle for their Sam460 board, containing a pre-selected case, mouse, HDD/DVD with SATA controller card, RAM, logotype stickers and a T-shirt, for EUR €1,062 (+EUR €45 for a graphics card, to make it usable ~ EUR €1,100)?

OK...

Case choice aside, I'm more curious about what ACube's use of the AmigaOne name might mean. Consider that A-eon is also using the AmigaOne name, and that many hypothesized that if the X1000 was successful A-eon might follow up with a less expensive AmigaOne X500. It wouldn't make any sense to have an AmigaOne 500 and an AmigaOne X500.

I guess it can be called "AmigaOne X600" then? Not that I think it will ever come that far...

I guess the red team is trying to get the naming conventions on their machines to line up as if it was one company.  Not a bad idea really since nobody can afford to make an entire product line.

Completely pointless, since all the potential customers (the people on amiga.org and amigaworld.net) already knows the difference. It's "the Emperor's new clothes" in that regard - everyone sees the truth but themselves. Especially so if you say crap things like "If you ever used the old Amiga 500 you will find that the new AmigaOne 500 takes this legacy to a new level" like broken pointed out above, I mean, who do they think they are fooling?
