unfortunately it does not, but it's just the beta version. Lets see how the final will do.

Congratulations. I've thought about that various times and the price and lack of CPU upgrades / no AltiVec have always kept me down.
PCIe is a big plus though.

Welcome to the club i have A AmigaOne 500 from acube and its great. minor the sound driver but its better then nothing.

for the pricing its not over the top i thing its expensive but hell its fast with os 4.

sound has a high pitch crackling but its working.

acube is now testing a pci-e 2 pci board for me to shift the sata controller to the pci-e 1x slot, hope it works.

enjoy your sam its great hardware.

Good luck with your purchase and hope it makes you happy.

Is it just me or are there a lot more of these threads lately?  Hope so.

Yep, seems I'm one among many that ordered a 460 lately :)

Updated news:  UPS states that my sam460 will be delivered monday! yay!  

Funny tho I've ordered a couple of things from AmigaKit the same day but they aren't here yet.  Cheers to Acube for fast service :)

I am sure AmigaKit is just swamped with extra work in preparing for the sales of the soon to be released "First Contact" AmigaOne X1000 systems and the hundreds of buyers trying to get one.

I am sure you will have your items from them shortly, as they have always been very prompt with all of my purchases from them (which have been many).

Got my Amigakit order friday, now i'm all set.  Everything went like a breeze.  Putting the motherboard in the case was easy except that my stupid ATX power connector was a 24 pin full so I had to cut out the last 4 and had to open a hole on the audio connector to make it plug on the sam board.

OS install was as easy as 3.1 used to be but at least it vanilla OS4 is cute and colourful.

Next step is to install update 3 since the internet connection setup obviously worked since I am posting this with OWB on my shiny new SAM460 :)
