I am not interested - at least not without support for my most preferred OS (which probably will not happen due to incompatible fpu).

+0 from me.

I am undecided. On the one hand, I sold my SAM460ex. I want another NG Amiga. My tax refund is going towards debt; so, I may not be able to afford the X5000. The A1222 is something I can afford, but it is not very expandable. I may have to sacrifice expansion for affordability.

One of the features of the A1222 that I have not yet heard much about is the l2s sound. What I had been doing with my SAM460ex (with an Envy24HT sound card) was digitizing old vinyl records. Is the L2s good enough for said task?

Apples and oranges. PhantomInterrogative means audio capability of Tabor board.

And you should never compare e500 to G4.

As Pavlor stated, L2S is the audio for the A1222. I can't find much information about it, which is why I asked.

I am also wanting to do some more work with ImageFX 4.5 and Aladdin4D. The SAM460 was powerful enough for my 3D and image processing needs, but if the A1222 can ad some speed (I had the SAM460ex lite at 1.0015 GHz) it may be worth it.

Don´t expect great speed increase. Tabor has weaker FPU than 460EX, so FPU intensive operations (eg. raytracing) will be slower.

PD: A perfect advert for Amiga, as you know Amiga = female friend in spanish

Choosing Wii in this advert means shutting-down brain. I never imagined my Amiga as a whore.

Technically, the Amigaone H/W is a PC. Only a lot less, in every aspect except the price.

Heck, with Hyperions developments towards UAE they more or less makes x86 PC's an official OS4 solution...

No it wasn't. Semantically perhaps (as in "Amiga was a Personal Computer"), but the technology was very different.
