A new Amiga is born *sniff*


No, an "AmigaOne" is born.  Glad to see it in production, perhaps now we can hear what the retail price is going to be?

Yes an AmigaOne is born and can run AmigaOS4.x which makes it more Amiga than a generic pc with a Commodore sticker slapped on running Linux.


So what is the retail price of the new AmigaOne?

That's not what what i said. I never said the xcore was designed specifically for the X1000. What i said was the xcore and the X1000 were designed to work together. They didn't just slap on the xcore chip on the X1000 motherboard and hope for the best, they put a lot of thought into it to make sure it would work well. Stop putting words in my mouth.


What?  You just said the two were designed to work together but in the sentence above it you denied the Xcore was designed for the A1X1K.  That doesn't make any sense.  If you are saying the A1X1K was designed to work with the Xcore, that is a bit more believable but highly questionable unless there is a special bus designed to allow the CPU direct access to the Xcore and bypassing the PCI bus.  This all begs a question on just what is the special purpose for having XCore in the first place?  I mean if A-EON had Varisys specifically design this so called tight integration, there had to be a specific reason for them to do so.  What is this very specific reason for them doing so for a desktop computer?
