Here's the first specs for the new Amiga from Amiga Inc.

Although I guess they had to stick with the e300 core to avoid major work.

My cell phone has more computing power than this new Amiga system.

It's AmiReligion. 2000 years from now people will be fighting over the holy red and white checker ball.

Ventilslav,

My AmigaOne works great with 256 MB

According to Amiga Inc. that motherboard you have is not an AmigaOne.

Hyperion have actually worked on this for years, Amiga Inc. havent done anything for years (except this last months circus).

Hyperion got paid, as far as i understand. 25.000 usd or so. So whats the problem.. they did their part, now AI does theirs.

[Polymorph]

I'm not even sure why I'm responding. Until something is actually released, it's still vaporware.

$500 for a motherboard that only takes 1G of RAM, no firewire with only 3 PCI slots, no AGP?

At least it's SATA...

Sad thing is I think even my A500 would give it a hard run.

I almost fell out of my chair laughing at *Mr.* Moss' calling Hyperion a 'shell company'.  What do you call two unemployed chuckleheads in the Pacific Northwest with nothing better to do than cling to the pipedream of some old Tao-based content shell running on top of WindowsCE?

Well he may have a point when he says that the delays allegedly caused by Hyperion have not exactly helped them in their venture.

Also, Fleecy gives a slightly more detailed account of the course of events in his court statement, to which your ironic description does not really do justice. Even though I agree that one may see a comical element in that statement of his.

I'm not worried about the speed, currently using an iMac G3 at 333 MHz and OSX and it serves me well.

I'm not worried about the maximum memory, again, the iMac has 288 MB and it doesn't stop me from using all different kinds of software ranging from Word to The Gimp.

I'm a bit worried over the price, but as it is a niche product that's something one can step-over.

I'm enormously worried about the OS being supplied! Nothing is mentioned! Will we have to use OS3.9? Has OS5 fallen from the blue sky. Or do they still have a possibility to ship OS4 with it?
