1,150 GBP for a beta board sure does make the SAM460 look cheap and the EFIKA-MX look like pocket change.

And a mac mini the most powerful AmigaNG OS capable machine the bargain of the century.


Pffft!  None of the Amiga-like OSs are NG.  Fastest Amiga-like OS system is going to be a 3+GHz x86 single core.

I'm amazed people aren't talking about the price of these beta boards vs the fuss of the NDA agreement hitting the web.  Had Ben been a real IP attorney, he would have done two NDAs, generic one and THEN A1X1K's NDA after getting the generic one back.  But we know his past record with AI's contracts and this NDA fiasco is yet another example of his capabilities or lack there of.

So if the retail price is going to be close to or over 1500 (350 more then the mobo/cpu/ram beta deal) plus 20% VAT, that should make it 1800 GBPs plus shipping.  Few upgrades and 2,000 GBPs plus shipping.  That's alot of money on this is side of the pond. Guess it's reasonable for Europeans?
