They may have stopped production of the board, if only temporary, to concentrate on the X1000.

The simplest explanation would be that all their PA6T chips have been set aside for the X1000 production so they discontinued the VM31. _________________ AlexC's free OS4 software collection

the truth is AmigaOne X1000 is x86 based with the P.A.Semi stricker on it (it's a global plot to gain more cash from the silly AmigaOS4 users, who gonna be bound to Debian Squeeze forever, cos as we know porting AOS4 to x84 is slightly uneconomic  _________________ "Marxism must abhor nothing so much as the possibility that it becomes congealed in its current form.

| Seems like Varisys is developing Nemo for both XMOS and X1000.

| IMHO: they seem to have AmigaOneX500 kind of system as well: http://www.varisys.co.uk/vcp6.html
Put a sticker on & install AOS4.2?
Also, I imagine varisys could spit out shark kind of HW pretty easily: http://www.varisys.co.uk/vs145.html Last edited by KimmoK on 15-Oct-2011 at 02:30 PM. Last edited by KimmoK on 15-Oct-2011 at 02:24 PM.

What a fool I am. I thought there might be a question and maybe even an answer. This thread should be deleted and started over with only questions and answers.

Hmmm ... Varisys seems to be worthy source of PPC hardware 
Hope soem of its hardware could be used as potential OS4/MOS target in the future _________________ AF 2012, Hollywood Designer 5, AmigaOS 3.5,4.0 and 4.1 registered user, user of Linux Mint 13 Roots Taking Over The World |

| I think globally companies that used PA6T moved away from it. They started using i7 (intel finally have abequate FPU/SIMD power) and new freescale PPCs with Altivec. _________________ - KimmoK // For freedom, for honor, for AMIGA // "priest" is just the RED goaul in me // The multicolor AmigaFUTURE IS NOW !! |

| Again me and my questions...
I read from AF that First Contact come with nemo block diagram, but I have not seen one in the wild yet.
Is the motherboard block diagram picture available anywhere in the net yet?
