No word on the specs of the system, (highly likly Arm based and highly likely same kinda of specs as the A500 mini ) but the price does seem very good, considering you can’t get a A1200.net case and keyboard for that much and this come with that and the games and mouse/controller.

Interesting it comes with workbench, they don’t say AmigaOS, so again maybe legally they still can’t use Amiga in the branding but some how cleared up the use of workbench name.

Still a shame of lack of serious titles and maybe some love / show case of the demo scene.

I guess they made a deal with Amiga Corporation after all... There was never AmigaOS, only Workbench

Yes, they seem to have told Hyperion to go stick OS3.2.x and licensed Workbench 3.1 from Amiga Corp. Fair play!

Well I think they have not much now, the competitors in the "Amiga Retro Market" will have time to react ...

@BigD

it is a rebuild of A1200 so it makes more sense to install plain 3.1 than to license updated versions that came later like 3.2

@BigD

Why would they want to license 3.2 from Hyperion?

Reasons for them not to license 3.2.

1) 3.1 is suffient for their needs.

2) Licensing 3.2 would probably cause legal problems.

3) 3.2 would likely cost more than 3.1.

4) If customers want 3.2 they can easily obtain it from another vendor.
