Well, I can understand them wanting confirmation of the Amiga license being granted, after their history with AmigaInc. I can't see that being a problem, just nail McEwen to a public statement or get a third-party to reveal all.

I'm not painting anyone. My assumption was that you didn't intend to support Hyperion's port, either financially or otherwise. Your previous comments suggest that you consider AmigaOS to be nothing more than a relic for the hobbyist, so I think I was basing that on fairly solid evidence.
Anyway, your machines don't need AmigaOS to run PC games any more than the A500 needed Workbench to run Amiga games. Its only on the enthusiast market that the AmigaOS has real value, both now and in the past.
This is why I feel there is room for two complementary product lines - games machines and enthusiast computers. And A-Eon's X1000 would make an ideal PowerAmiga to complement your line of games machines and bring a much-needed connection to the custom-hardware Amiga legacy to your lineup. But to get anywhere, it would need to avoid being overshadowed by your brand/advertising.
That would require either the X1000 adopting a different brand, to avoid confusion (the 'Lorraine' solution) or you adding it in some way to your marketing material/web shop as the enthusiast's choice.

Scheherazade is good. I like the name's background, but perhaps the general public might mistakenly think that A-Eon is selling some sort of carbonated drink...  Last edited by T-J on 16-Sep-2010 at 06:55 PM.
