Yes it was rather nice. And it could have gone either way.

"The Next-Generation Amiga That Never Materialized Just Went Up For Pre-Order"

That could be the Tabor or Vampire.

I was thinking the same thing.

I did enjoy the Linus Torvalds quote.

COULD HAVE BEEN the Tabor... But sadly isn't since they continue to sit on it and not release any information... As usual another squandered opportunity..

While the Vampire IS in Pre-Order, Tabor continues to be vaporware...

@TREVOR
where is our Tabor?

"Linus Torvalds quote."

Linus has never used an Amiga nor understood it.

According to him (said in the 90's), Amiga can not do proper multitasking.

Perhaps that's why Linux desktop OSs suck. Amigan would never design such a bloated piece of *.
