| Quite a few users within the Amiga community eagerly await the yet-to-be-released Amiga Tabor. In a nutshell, the system is an entry level PowerPC-system meant for AmigaOS 4.1, with an assumed price tag that should appeal to any Amiga user still on the fence taking the step from the OS 3.1. The Amiga Tabor is available to a select group of beta testers, but not generally available to the public. The general assumption is that the Tabor is being held back by the lack of proper SANA-2 Ethernet support for it's built-in networking hardware. Accordingly, A-EON Technology Ltd - the EU-based company behind the Amiga Tabor - has yet to announce an official release date.
In this AmigaWorld.net, you are kindly asked to approach the ballot box and cast your vote - from what you know about the Amiga Tabor's current level of progress and A-EON as a company, when do you realistically think that the Tabor will be available for delivery from your local Amiga dealer? _________________ That'll Put Marzipan In Your Pie Plate, Bingo 💻 Pro-Amiga, 🌍 Pro-Globalism, 🍅 Pro-Vegan, 🛦 Pro-NATO & 🇪🇺 Pro-Joint EU Defense Intervention Initiative |

They'll strive for a Christmas release and miss it. 2019 Q1 is likely IMHO. _________________ "Art challenges technology. Technology inspires the art." John Lasseter, Co-Founder of Pixar Animation Studios |

I hope for mid 2018 release, but I will not bet on it... again. |

| An option for "Never" is likely warranted. |

I've no idea when but I hope the release is handled better than the X5000 and that all participating dealers have stock of boards and systems ready for sale at the same time. |

2019 or never, I'm afraid.
It seems as though the Amigakit announcement as disappeared into E-Space.

| Well considering this video of the system running on Trevors blog in Dec 2017 ( http://blog.a-eon.biz/blog/?p=10958 ) , it would seem its close and there was an update in the march blog ( http://blog.a-eon.biz/blog/?m=201803 ) to summarise there basically waiting on some final drivers, which would seem most have made it to beta stage of testing. I would guess the aim would be for Amiwest, plus i dont think the project will be scrapped/cancelled, most likely too much money has been invested already, plus I believe they have the boards ready and waiting. its just a shame the delay has I feel taken a bit of momentum out of the system. _________________ AmigaNG, YouTube, LeaveReality Studio |

It's a shame that a thread with 16 responses and unknown vote tally was used for the blog Generation Amiga.
It reports 52% said... that's maybe eight people
I hope that the Gen Amiga people don't miss use threads in the future!

| Tabor was supposed to have been released at Amiwest 17, but was prosponed with no real date given.. I fear the release date will be pushed and pushed. If it will ever be released I will get one, since the others are a bit out of my pricerange.
