I thought they where already partners. well i guess they just made it offical

Link won't work for me.

Nothing new here. When will they announce complete specs, actual pricing, and show off the whole system? They're burning momentum by the day, and this doesn't recapture it.

Isn't that bit pretty much an oxymoron these days?:laughing: I'm sure it will have a high end price, at least.

Well, obviously they mean high-end compared to 603/604/440 etc. It would presumably have to be a better performer than a 1GHz+ 745x too to be considered high-end in terms of PPC amigas too.

I thought the last new Amiga was released about a year ago.

That depends on what you actually call an "Amiga".

For me, the last Amiga released was the A4000T, the others are simply spin-off solutions and marketing BS.
Others believe that the SAM and that this forthcoming X-1000 are Amigas too.

I fail to see their point. But then the choice is yours, and you may happily disagree.

great news BUT please give us more details and a website for the X1000 !

So in your view, what makes an Amiga?

It's not an Amiga, it's a AmigaOne.  That is what Hyperion has access to name systems, "AmigaOne."
