Interesting, no?

There is a lot of discussion over at amigaworld about this. What does amiga.org think?

Thanks
Dave

That's pretty much my take on this. I am actually holding out for the new A1.

I was trying to avoid that notion! Let me rephrase my statement, ahem:
If the Shark, Dragon, A1, Vixxen, etc.... show up I will buy one of them.
Heh. :roll:

@machinehead

I found this interview to be quite interesting.  I know that Adam was involved with the µA1.

Although I take most announcements with a grain of salt (been burned before), I really hope that ACK comes through with production boards.

Unfortunately, it's the chicken and egg situation.  It is hard to sell a motherboard without an OS, and it is hard to sell the OS without a motherboard.

IMHO, Amiga OS 4.0 is almost ready.  IMHO, the Hyperion guys deserve to make some money for their efforts.

It is my hope that µA1 boards, ACK boards and Troika boards will all be available to run OS4.
