I'm sorry if this has already been covered/answered but... what about Hyperion? After all, they are the ones that have been developing the AmigaOS. This is a thought that just occurred me. I just read the Engadget article in a hurry and haven't read this whole thread yet so this question might be a bit stupid (big apologies if it is).

>And why do you think I would prefer to buy an AmigaOne X1000 from Commodore over buying it from AmigaKit?
Because it would be "Commodore"? Because it would be "Amiga", not AmigaOne?
Whether it is a "Commodore" or an "Amiga" insterad of an "AmigaOne" or if a sack of rice bursts somewhere in China basically means the same to me...

No advantage beside perhaps more channels to buy from.

That's not exactly what I'd call an advantage - this way I can as well keep what I already have (i.e. not running to buy Commodore stuff).

You can call it whatever you like - call it "RollyRotz", if you like... I call mine "Miggy"...

5 is just a number. indicating bigger OS change than 0.x numbers. (IMO. 64bit, ASMP, MP, x86 are so big features that it is worth the bigger number change .... and perhaps separate unstable R&D branch for many years to come)
Hyperion always emphasised that they will not port the AmigaOS to x86 - so there will be no x86 version. As for the version number it's up to them what number they choose. What do you mean with "MP"? And what is ASMP meant to mean?
