"I still am highly sceptical about the existence of the dragon (as an Amiga accelerator). Ever wondered why there is no "full body" shot of the card, just a little close up here an there ?"

copyright reasons? "cloner" sharks around? ;-)

Just for the fun of it I was looking at http://www.vesalia.de/

vesalia typically lists items for sale, regardless of their "reality state"... nothing new...

Why would they do that? I mean if I order something I would expect them to have it...

elbox won't release anything until OS 4 shows up. I think they are waiting to make sure Eyetech/Hyperion can't make any changes in the OS to prevent it running on the dragon. If they release it now, hyperion can put some nasty protection on OS4 to prevent it from running on the Dragon. And maybe hyperion is also waiting for the dragon to be released to release the OS4 ? (stalemate ?) :-D

edit : ahh ... sorry it was shark what I'm talking about. dragon-coldfire is 68k.

I don't like the idea of it being a PCI\AGP and an Accelerator.. I would buy the accelerator, bbut not the busboard.. I don't want to buy a new PCI soundcard and i Voodoo AND a new MONITOR!! I hate this!! It would have been a great idea had it been an accelerator only, or maybe an accelerator\soundcard, or something usefull, like USB or ETHERNETcard.. Well..

Yes that could be...  :lol:

But I don´t think they are waiting for anything, OS4 have nothing to do with 68k.... there is no problem...

Elbox tell me that the Dragon may be with us before the Big Bash 3 show - I would certainly like to be selling them there but AmigaKit.com will not advertise the Dragon until a consignment of them have left Elbox bound for us!

Incidentally a pallet of D-Box 1200 tower's has left Elbox last week and is en route to us- so we orders are being taken now for the tower.
