@Metalheart

Xbox360 and PS3 cover that niche yet, for my taste,
we need a better desktop solution,
with improved processing power from what we now enjoy,
and more important:
a widespread developer comunity to ensure
activity and healthness, and support for new appearing
technologies!!
Stability, Power, elegance, simplicity at the same time,
resuming, Amiga style.....
I wait the Os4.1 update, and if new hardware and software
coming is attractive, i'll take a look at my accounts balance.
XDDDD

Noticed them yes. But before them being removed. If it was a puzzle. You'd have these letters:

OM
ENIGMA
AEON

This leaves us with....

aaeegimnoo which could be AmigaOne OE... Whatever that means????? If you think A1 and they have XE,SE etc. Which would lead to OE...

I thought it meant they're porting X to OS4.1. It would be a great move and provide things likeApache, Open Office, probably MySQL, Evolution, the Gimp, a ton of software fairly quickly. Maybe that's how they're porting Firefox?

Thanks to who-ever spotted justadot.png . Hyperion finally got my attention

BTW, I think unlikely from a commercial point of view, but *if* Jens Schoenfeld (Individual Computing) was involved, then it could have the AGA chipset built-in, using his Clone-A project (of which we've heard very very little). Not really any point though, when a >1GHz CPU should run E-UAE quite fast.

>ambitious and commercial suicide IMHO.

Yes, I agree. But it seems possible.
And for all we know they could have backing from several big game companies.

It would be realy cool, wouldn't it ?

I dont think this is it though, but it seems possible.

Hopefully x86 based Aone hardware!

In an IRC chat a few weeks ago ssolie said that if the Natami team wanted to have a chance, they should team up with Individual Computers. He was hinting that Clone-AA was coming to fruition. Gunnar and the rest of the Natami team think that Clone-AA is just going to be an AGA compatible core for the FPGA but I'm not sure it will be limited to that. The Indivision AGA scan mulitplier pretty much replaces the functionality of the Lisa chip on AGA but with new scan rates. If Clone-AA has all the chunky support and everything that the Natami team have been trying to offer, we could have some awfully good news on our hands.

Hyperion is too small to pull off a gameconsole that can compete with any current gameconsole. The budgets of these companies are insane.

And I wouldn't find it cool either; if you would want OS4 or any OS to shine games are not the way IMHO. Sure games are important for a platform but an OS is not for a console.

I guess the chances for that are slim to none.

@Thread

So many times in the (not-too-distant) past, such a long thread on AW.net would indicate something divisive, developing into an opinionated flame-war.

(Not wanting to jinx it or anything, but..) it is nice to have such a long thread on a positive note.

I suppose it could conceivably be a card to plug into an x86 machine to add Amiga compatibility, but I can't see how or why that would be done.

if it brings more users and developers then its not bad thing, but I do agree that the standard installation of AmigaOS4 is maybe too big or not well adapted to be game console OS.
(maybe only 50mb for kickstart is needed + MiniGL)

I guess it is a new computer platform that is backward compatible with some Amiga technologies..

Time for a new beginning as it is stated on teaser web page

After a quarter of a century, is Amiga on the brink of a new age ?

To get cheaper than passive busboard system?

But it's not that because the picture has a motherboard attachment screw holes on the board.

Surely you mean "Eye"

After all, who did the original series of AmigaOne Boards? Court Case is over, this could all fit, or does it?
