I found nearly the same text and description in Ralph Babel's "Amiga Guru Book" according to him this information came from Robert Peck.
Ralph Babel might be an unperson for some people at Hyperion, because Ralph Babel together with Ralph Schmidt introduced "the other" 64bit extension for Amiga's trackdisk.device and Olaf Barthel was their opponent in this days.Last edited by Arko on 11-Mar-2012 at 09:47 PM.

| Overall good news - having new X1000 batch, as well as new sounds are nice.
Seems it was written fast by Trevor "Movie tria" should be "More Trivia?"
Xorro card is a bit surprising, we expected XMOS for all, and now it seems a card will be needed to use XMOS fully. And Xorro was promoted as ability to add additional XMOSes in Transputer like fashion. Or I did everything wrong?
Many different news in same item, shows progress, thanks. _________________ OS 3.x AROS and MOS supporter, fi di good, nothing fi di unprofessionalism. Learn it harder way! SinclairQL and WII U lover :D YT http://www.youtube.com/user/rasvoja

I was just now looking at that too. I don't know about the "More" part, but you are probably right about the "Trivia". I am going to change that.
Trevor let us know what is correct.

| Same goes for AmigaOS 4.1 update 5 
Meanwhile, boot sounds goes YouTube
A-EON theme is long, but this is nice, optimistic and a bit futuristic!
Well done!
Even loved Eastern Boot and X1000 in Asia should have that one too  _________________ OS 3.x AROS and MOS supporter, fi di good, nothing fi di unprofessionalism. Learn it harder way! SinclairQL and WII U lover :D YT http://www.youtube.com/user/rasvoja

Great work to all involved with this project!! Any good word(s) for those of us who pre-ordered the first time but have not yet received their coveted X1000? Will we be getting systems from this production run? Thanks!

"Or I did everything wrong?"
Yes. Almost.
xorro provides the I/O pins of xena. Those I/O pins can be used for anything, for example in connecting more xcore chips, RAM, or whatever.
Without I/O, xena's usefullness is far more limited (just a handfull of processing threads with 60...120MIPS each). Last edited by KimmoK on 12-Mar-2012 at 07:51 AM.

Customers should check www.amigakit.com/x1000 official ordering page. We will be opening pre-ordering there once ready.

Man this is awesome news. I hope all the guys that had pre-ordered the first batch get their's for sure! Hopefully it will be a bigger run so some new users can get involved. The more high end X1000 boxes out there and the more energy spent on OS and Software development with this target platform the whole community gets stronger.
I know one more thing IF YOU WANT AN X1000 BUY IT NOW!

I really think It's sad that the X1000 is being sold this way. The uber succesfull teaser campaign over two years ago, should have resulted in A GREAT LAUNCH of the X1000...not this slow leaking of 50 machines at a time.
The fantastic teaser campaign showed everybody just how hot the demand were to get a new powerfull AmigaOS machine. I have never seen an amiga related thread move THAT FAST in my entire life.
Even the world started taking notice, and news about it suddenly popped up everywhere! - It's really an amazing achievement to kill that momentum slowly and efficiently, which is exactly what has happened. The world has forgot what it was all about, and you can't get that campaign back again. We really had THEIR ATTENTION for the first time in a looong time.....ARGH!

There must have been some frequencies at the end which attracted his attention.
And, of course, I had to join in on the howl. Try it yourself!

| Love the new X1000 boot theme, had to make it my boot sound on my Sam. Is that cheating? 
Seriously considering going for an X1000 after seeing some videos of (unoptimised) performance. The white system looks really smart too judging by the photos in this review. _________________ gtmooya's blog
