What would be your move now that you know the price of the X1000?

[Dragster]

oops... owb double post.. sorry

[giZmo350]

Already bought the SAM460EX complete system!
SAM460EX in new Silverstone case

Tiger's back on the Mini.  

I'm gonna do the same thing to my 1.25MHz Mac Mini!
The 1.5GHz Minis are OK with Leopard and another 1.5GHz has MorphOS & Leopard.

Continue to give WinUAE the finger.

Continue to wonder why non-Windows based Amiga emulators continue to get no love.

My thoughts exactly brother!

[klapdeur]

I allready ordered my Amiga X500 from Acube.

x1000 to expensive for me.

just got lucky to buy me a X500 (flex460ex)

whole system and my first Amiga One product  
never had a change to buy one.


for my collection of clasic amigas now the NG besides mac mini with Mos 2.7

[trekiej]

I would buy one if I could afford it.

[spihunter]

The Amigaone G3 in my signature is plenty enough power for OS4 for me. I got it for $300 USD. I got the G4 Mac for MorphOS for free so I'm good there. I'm mean how much better is Octamed/OWB/MilkyTracker going to run on a X1000 then it does on my G3?. I guess I'm not the target audience.

Nothing really changes for me here, I didnt plan on buying one anyway, but no option is quite right for me either. If there was one for me it'd be something like:

Keep hopeing for better value OS4 hardware before I jump onboard.

Until then Im content with my a1200, amithlon and MOS.

I am actually willing to spend a little more on OS4 gear if I have to than any of the others, but as things stand for me the difference is too great.

Think I'll stick to my A3k and WinUAE. I rarely use either these days for the occasional game or ImageFX.  Hopefully a good used Mac will come by and I might give MorphOS a try since its relatively afordable.

I got severe sticker shock when saw the price. I almost thought it was an April fools joke.

[Ancalimon]

I'll go sit and cry in a dark corner.

I'll go sit and cry in a dark corner.

Cheer up little guy, there's still hope!

Hello FPGAs - my next dollars will be spent on FPGA Replay or Natami. Even if I had loads of money, or finish the tunnel to the bank; I would not know what to do with such a thing, it's really for uber computer scientists - not consumer / hobbyists.

:drink:

[Darrin]

I'm going to wait a little longer and see what happens with the drivers for the X1000.  If the situation isn't resolved soon then I'll probably go with an AmigaOne500.

[persia]

It just helps me realise that  AROS is the way to go.

[TheBilgeRat]

Well that and...

Stick with my Classic Amigas as nothing seems capable of replacing them 100%.

Continue to use and love my experience with MorphOS (a fast as hell Amiga compatible environment, not emulator).

Hope for Natami or some high speed FPGA solution to arrive.

Dabble with AROS till it matures.

Use Amithlon.

Continue to give WinUAE the finger.

Continue to wonder why non-Windows based Amiga emulators continue to get no love.

Hold out on OS 4 till it is released for Powerful modern hardware that is priced decently so all can afford and enjoy.

Oh and continue to use my Atari 8-bits as well.

What he said  minus the Atari garbage

[Lurch]

Since we know the X1000 is over US$2600, are you still planning to buy it or look for another solution such as...

As for myself, the SAM460 is a much more realistic choice since I don't see what the X1000 can do that any NG Amiga can't(!)

I'll be purchasing a Natami and FPGA arcade... don't see that option on the poll.

[takemehomegrandma]

At EUR €1,000 a system of this level is too expensive. EUR €1,500 is *way* over the top. At EUR €2,500 its just plain ridiculous...

[Jope]

My options are not listed.

Yeah, where's the point&laugh-option? :-D
