Announcement   Announcement : AresOne - big price cut
   posted by phoenixkonsole on 11-Feb-2010 19:40:55 (2677 reads)
Since there is no need for a Soundblaster live anymore, we could lower the price for the base System!
It includes Amiga Foever (OEM), A-live X with free (printed) Icaros desktop DVD and costs now only 339,90 Euro.

Thanks goes to Davy Wentzler for adding support for ALC888-audio-chipsets. Thank you Davy.



The AresOne is AROS dedicated and affordable PC. The mission is to boost AROS- development and get more apps. Also its like a "hey look here, this is possible with x86 - you should try it too" - message to hyperion : )
Most money, not only those 25% i spoke about before, will be reinvested in AROS and not only for AresOne exclusive. Be prepared for some big bangs this year!

Visit us on the Amiga Event 2010 in Essen, Germany and celebrate the 25 anniversary.

I'm still looking for coders!

Regards,
Pascal Papara

That got to be the most affordable new "Amiga" around

@manu i think this too : )
If you would go to any other dealer an let him put this together it would be even more expensive. To get se same you had to buy a Keyfile for FryingPan (25¤) also you had to buy Amiga Forever.
Plus ~30¤ find its way to AROS.

Sorry i had to write this because some people are saying that it is too expensive. Hmm A-live gets updates too, which are free for all customers...

From the time the Media Center Frontend is ready you will get a µ-ATX -System too : ) I'm looking already for a USB remote to bundle it with this

Looking forward to use AROS as my main OS for every task i need....

Stop apologizing for the price, it is a good and fair price. It is one of the nicest cases I have seen and whilst ITX's are my preferred choice I only have one PCI slot so either 3d graphics or upcoming Catweasel, with yours you get both. My only comment is leave the price the same and put in a 3ghz processor which really makes the diference with 68k emulation.

Keep up the good work.

Steve

@Pascal

Very cool idea, but I would never buy a product with 'One' in the name. That includes the google phone if its called 'nexxusOne'.

We could send you one with another name on it - whatever you like... customer is king
There where good products in the past with "one" or "1" in the name too.

What is the fastest single core, single threaded x86 CPU ?

If you plug a 6000+ in the AresOne you would have 3Ghz / core with 1MB Cache per core. You could also use a Phenom if you like. The slowest i used in an AresOne was a Athlon 64 (non dualcore) 3200+ - it can playback HD-Video too. The 4400+ is just used as compromise if you need more power just ask. Its not economic ,until now, to offer all Kind of CPU's but if you need one just ask.
