The case of the (new) Amiga...

[Matteus]

For me, it would be something like these two combined.

A mATX version of course, and not blue decor, but Amiga red and logo, etc.

Well, it's just a dream. But I like that clear white.

Just my .01€ (I used to be 2 cents, but due to the recession it's been reduced)

Either rip an existing A1000 motherboard and put it into a box of your choice.

Or use an FPGA Arcade that will fit in just about anything.

I was thinking more modern stuff, like mATX X1000 or Sam 460, maybe?

Those aren't Amigas.

Yes.. I would certainly like to see this design to become reality :cool:..

Do you happen to be into this business or just passionate?

[Tripitaka]

Those aren't Amigas.

So says you. Yawn, heard it all before, never miss a trolling opportunity huh.....   sheeeesh....

Oh, hello NemoGoesSushi, welcome to A.org. Don't mind the trolls, they keep getting out of the cages.

I think this case is my favorite one (for today anyway), I would love one of these:

Well, the old A1000 already has a very neat case.

Yes, very nice, but it's more like a PC gaming case than a traditional Amiga case. I'd like the case to look like it is an Amiga, not a generic hi-tech PC chassi. The Amiga is not going to have a CPU and gfx card that draws 500 Watts, anyway. 100, maybe. I don't like power hungry monsters, anymore. They take up far too much space, costs too much to buy and have switched on.

Not sure. I like the original A1000 but not this. It reminds me of a plastic stormtrooper. But i think it's a good idea basing the new case around the A1000. Except it should be made of cnc'd polished aluminum like the Apples are and not crappy white plastic.

Alu? Hm, my thought on that are rather divided. Haven't got much luv left for the modern Apple-Intel traitor designs, either. Overpriced PCs, mostly.
