Hyperion/A-EON introduce us to the AmigaOne X1000. A new beginning?

[number6]

Of course it will be.

which takes us back to this

"BTW... since Leo brought this up on Commodore-amiga.org, I can say it here I guess"

Mark Shuttleworth being the obvious reference here.

But...but don't you know we have to wait and see? It might just magically turn into an operating system with some actual kind of Amiga base late in development! Maybe Barry's fairy godmother will sprinkle it with magical Commodore dust?

The problem with quotes like this from C-USA:

There were some talks with a major linux distro maker founded by a South African entrepreneur

Is that they also like to make quotes like:

"There were some talks Jerri Ellsworth" or "There were some talks with the AROS Team" or "We're partners with Walt Disney" or "We have a factory in China" or "I've taken all my medications today" which don't always mean what they want us to think they mean.

The whole quote could have read "There were some talks with a major linux distro maker founded by a South African entrepreneur, but they told us to go and shag ourselves and don't call again."

Sure, the quote can have another meaning or merely be the attempt to plant a seed of PR.
Regardless, it's obvious that COS V1.0 is an "in house" production.
It's also obvious that since Leo has posted that he will be leaving for quite a while, that some work will have to be contracted out, which probably would have been the case regardless.

Most likely diaper changing since his wife is expecting.

Back on topic, what's the news on the A1X1K?

That is so studpid. Why do people keep on trying to change the x1000 to A1X1K?

Dammy, are you doing this on purpose? CUSA are trying to trivialize aeons Amigaone X1000 because of their own Amiga 1000X?

[takemehomegrandma]

@Kesa

Probably for the same reason people say "Peg" instead of Pegasos, "A1" instead of "amigaone" and "Sam" instead of "Samantha": It's shorter and easier to write!

There is no need to "trivialize" the the A1X1K, no need for conspiracy theories; its prohibitively high price, its crappy price/performance ratio and OS4's substandard features/performance will ensure it will never become more than a parenthesis even in the OS4 branch of NG OS's...

[djrikki]

A1X1K.. lame how is that easier to type unless your caps lock is broken, pathetic excuse.  

You mean the AmigaOne X1000, the next generation Amiga/AmigaOS computer.

[minator]

I agree, My Motorola Atrix would more than likely out perform the x1000, and has the software support to do so.

Nope, not even close.

OTOH this is likely to close the gap considerably:

Just like MorphOS

Making it shorter A1X1K 'aint gonna make it come out any earlier.  I gave up 2 months ago and bought a new PeeCee.

[itix]

I have seen OS4 users and non-OS4 users using X1K or A1X1K more often than full length name... like A1-XE and A1-SE and uA1 are common abbreviations for Eyetech AmigaOnes.

"PeeCee"? And what is that an abbreviation for? PC? How is using "PeeCee" instead of PC going to make my life any easier? I really don't get it...
