Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

I am so disappointed...I was expecting some kind of SAM below 1000$ and all we get is the same product with a different casing....

Looks about like any other boring-ass micro-ATX case, and you can get other boring-ass microATX cases for well less than the $200-400 difference between this and the cost of a SAM 460ex setup from Vesalia.

But I suppose that wouldn't have the Holy Sticker, would it? (I mean, Christ, it's already got the Holy Name...)

It's for those that lack capability to assemble by their own means I guess..?

You will burn at the stake! Anyone found without the holy sticker will have to use Windoze on x86 for eternity ;) ;)

That's about the size of it. Problem is, nobody with the resources to make it seems to want it, for any single definition of "it."

Wow, this case looks worse than the crap-o machines that the mom-n-pop PC repair joint around the corner from my house is slinging, and only for $1,200 USD! What a deal! :banana:

The way things are going... new FPGA Amigas look far more interesting and afordable. Perhaps even with better prospects ?
