The Aspire makes a great little Aros machine ... But Acer doesn't support Aros like Genesi does. _________________ Support AROS sponsor a developer.

| I don't see what the issue with posting news about this is, if the intention is to run AROS then that's still Amiga-based news. Besides, as pointed out elsewhere, the company behind it have a long-associated (and some would say chequered) history with all things Amiga so there is some relevance, even if they are/were diversifying away from the Amiga-esque platform(s).
Good luck to Genesi with the new product.
Rude!

| More than if it's Amiga related, I would ask if its "news" related.
All we have here is unsold Efika MX (last year) stuff getting a price cut. Don't get me wrong, I wish Genesi good luck with this maneuver they're making to get rid of the things, but alas... _________________ SamFlex Complete 800Mhz System + AmigaOS 4.1 Update 4 Amiga 2000 DKB 2MB ChipRam GVP G-Force040 Picasso 2 OS3.9 BB2 AmigaCD 32

| I'd rather read about a computer capable of running AROS, created by Genesi which created/supported the Pegasos/MorphOS in the past, that Discreet's latest "project", or "offer to buy Aladdin that will be available for xxx, or be refound,...".
One is a shipping product. The other one is just words... _________________ http://www.warpdesign.fr/

You conservative! I am for the liberalization of putting stuff in other people mouths, it should be allowed everywhere - outside the bedroom, so anyone can freely put something in his or her mouth and vice versa e.g. for example, when you walk in the park. _________________ "Marxism must abhor nothing so much as the possibility that it becomes congealed in its current form.

| @nimrod :)) And putting stuff to mounths with words "only amiga make it possible" (and you should have boing-ball cap when do that in the park). Later in newspapers: "watchout ! new boing ball follower putting stuff to the mounth , even if you just walk in the park !"
@Leo Sure, info about Genesi better than DisctreFx newses. They for sure do many good things. I right now even type that from peg2, which in some areas even a bit better than sam460 for today (bigger l2 cache, can connect many pci devices). As far as i remembler , they even thinking about making pegasos3 , and someone start to collect some money for , but still nothing. Last edited by kas1e on 17-Mar-2011 at 11:04 AM.

| Well i am sure its open to os4 core dev team if they want to port OS4 to Genesi release Efika MX for users & its cheap.
i got acer aspire one and aros runs nicely if anything goes wrong with my acer than why not its cheap for a netbook & specialy comes from Genesi. _________________ http://aros-exec.org/

If Genesi can get their next generation EFIKA-MX (i.mx.53) close to $50 USD OEM costs, I think they a hot product to license out to OEMs. I know Barry perked up when I was telling him of what Genesi was attempting in cost reductions and capability improvements. _________________ Dammy

Maybe because earlier they have had only prices for Nettop instead of netbook which is news...
But nice to see how tolerant "OS4 news are allways trolled" Amigan inquisition team is once again. |
