I can also see 4 x SATA, possibly a CF card interface, possibly a Toslink output and various parallel headers. Interesting  :cool:

The build-up to this was exciting until now. Now I'm getting impatient and just want to know what it is, and how much it will cost. If the information is available, I think they should just tell us. We've waited long enough for it :rolleyes:

You know, after a long period away from it all, I only recently got my A1 up to date and working properly (still needs more RAM though). It would be typical that new hardware becomes available in the meantime, eh?

I'm interested in hearing the specifics of the specs and also the price as well... If this is 3-4ghz I'd be interested, otherwise forget it.
 
I just don't understand paying so much for the current very old and outdated spec hardware. Yes I understand smaller runs means higher prices, but the difference is just too dramatic for my tastes...
 
Will be interesting to hear the price of this.

He emailed me the other day and he was stuck in the middle of nowhere when no Internet connection and barely a mobile signal. He's probably dead by now :(

LOL, I feel bad for laughing at that. But I know how you feel dead when you're not online. And I can see how you seem dead to your online friends.

I'm just waiting for a buy it now button to pop up next to the new motherboard.

Aw, come on Red, it's a bit of fun and generated some interest at least. How long has it been since we had some guess the story shenanigans? :)



We've been guessing for the last 16 years  :)

You might as well forget it now then. I doubt this will be anything above 1.5GHz if it's based on readily available PPC processors.

As for the spec, well, by the look of it, it has an up to date PCI bus (read express) and SATA at the very least. That's a lot more up to date than the majority of amiga hardware.

And it only costs £99999.99.99999

Time to speculate on price. If this is another top dollar for dated technology scenario then it'll be another Amiga fanboy folly that will sit next to the MiniMig, Sam440, CDTV, PowerUp Cards.

BUT if it's pried right it can attract tinkerers and coders and innovators then alright they're onto something. A low power device with powerfull HD video I/O and expansion possibilities can have lots of applications.

Finally a real piece of 'Amiga' hardware which might, finally, interest me.  Who would have beleived it, after all these years.
