I had heard of one of these way back but didnt know much about it and thought it was just a rumor.
Alot of rumors where floating around at this time so it just sounded like another.

Very  Intereresting article.

I'm pretty sure it was a custom setup...and not
an official C= product.

  Well, I can say that KS 3.1 was completed for CD32, some Amiga 1200's, and of course the handfull of 4000T's made by Commodore (pre Escom).  The A2200's were sold basically as developer boards only and not as fully working units well after C='s demise.   :-D

  It was definately not an official C= product at all, to the best of my knowledge the 2200 was not based on any official C= product but did draw alot from the A1400 proposal, but David H. never had any hand in this product.  Now, in the Escom era we did see that Walker project that did provide some of the features of the 2000 sans case style, and it had the never publicly released Kickstart 3.2 which was 3.1 in 1 1mb rom rather than 2 512k plus better cdfs and IDE handling as well as a fix for ffs to support larger hd partitions, some other minor fixes such as improved Setpatch and support for a new custom chip whose name escapes me right now was included as well..  Outside of the asthetics of the case I was really hoping that an Amiga with Walker specs. would come out.  Well, hope and wishfull thinking is the daily bread of we few proud Amiga owners.   :-D
