@B00tDisk

Hey, let them enjoy the moment. These "AmigaOne" buyers paid a hell of a lot of money and waited a hell of a long time. Better late than never for them. I'm as big a critic as the next guy, but today isn't a day to piss on their parade.

Just my personal opinion. :-)

-edit-
I am curious about the mad rush of people demanding coupon and party pack refunds to amiga Inc and how that will play out :popcorn:
Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!

Wait for the Sam440. It's much better then the Efika and doesn't cost 800 dollar.

Get it running on Efika, and I'll jump with glee, until that day, I'm still very very shocked that this day came, I was in doubt!

@Puppy

Yeah, I was wondering about that too.

Perhaps production will start when AOS4 is released, but the boards will be released "When it's done.." (Couldn't resist)

 :-D
Mac Mini G4 (1.5GHz, 64MB VRam, 1GB Ram): MorphOS 3.6
Powerbook 5.8 (15", 1.67GHz, 128MB VRam, 1GB Ram): MorphOS 3.8.

Windows-free since 2011-2014 (Damn you Netflix!)

Good news indeed.

Looks like I'll be dusting off the old A1 in a couple of days time. (won't be home till then.)

Well done people.

Availability of PowerPC hardware suitable for operation with Amiga OS 4.0 will be announced by third parties early 2007.


Did everyone miss this line? Sounds alot like Efika to me.

A4000D, A3640 OC-36.3MHz, custom tower, Mediator A4000D. Diamond Banshee 16M, Indivision AGA 4000, GVP HC+8.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

 - Someone please design SOME kind of DIY accelerator for the A4000. :D -

@dammy:

why are you talkin trash about OS4?  You're talking as if AROS is such a awesome OS.. get back to work and release something we can all use other then a 3.1 Workbench that runs on x86.
