@KimmoK

Heureka to that, too!

@MamePPCA1

Wouldn't surprise if this kind of enthusiasm would kill the PC monopholy. Like i tried to explain even to an old stubborn PC-friend. There is no longer any reason to aband the Amiga..

The time has come for alternative solutions to make its' important appearance. A time for people to be free and make
their own choices. I'm sure Microsoft fears this, and can't do anything to prevent this. This is destiny, and even Microsoft are not able to prevent this from happening...

The time is now. Break free from the dark domination that has made the computing industry a deadly cancer...

@Rigo

Hehe, extremely good point. He hasn't been involved anything related to Amiga since late 90-ies, neither
did he develop anything for Amiga. He was only a
former Amiga-user..

I explained to him that the people behind this new Amiga project, like Hyperion Entertainment, are no fools and that
they know what they are doing...

I didn't believe this old friend, but just to be sure, i had to take up this topic to bring out the truth to show him...

I had to laugh about him really. How could there be no booting facilities for X1000 to run AmigaOS 4.1, when considering the truth that a lot of AmigaOS 4.1 stuffs have been ported to the X1000 hardware already?

@magic

Thanks God! I was worried about this. Glad to know this is NOT the case...

@Antique

Wow, they do? Already? That is good news. Then why did this old PC-friend of mine claim they didn't? I guess he was trying to trap me into that Windows/Microsoft dominance again, but he failed...

Some of you might know him by his old nickname "Amigadigger". He was the one. Not trying to revenge
him somehow, but to let you know..

Some rumours say that AmigaOne X1000 still lacks important BOOTING-facilities of AmigaOS 4.1, and
that some might express worries that X1000's
possibilities to boot into AmigaOS 4.1, won't
make it into the release time in June this year..

I certainly hope this is not true, and that everything
will process with success..

Just a suggestion. Would it help if A-EON Technology actually in addition introduced themselves and the new
AmigaOne X1000 through Facebook, to attract more
people to it? That could be an idea...

AmigaOS has its' own kind of public group or so at Facebook. What if A-EON and their X1000 have the same?

What do you say, Trevor?

@Antique

Not sure where you want to go with this one, but Trevor might have tried to explain that the CPU could be 64-bit,
but AmigaOS4 still 32-bit. I wouldn't worry about this..

This means nothing bad...

@KimmoK and all

Looking forward to see what the mystical CPU is, but it could be a good thing if the CPU already is 64-bit, but currently has to run in 32-bit because of AmigaOS4..

It's AmigaOS5 that will likely be a true 64-bit SMP OS.
I'm sure of it, and Hyperion might have better ideas for
this than what Amiga Inc had..'

But would be surprised if Hyperion manage to fill these gaps in later versions of AmigaOS 4..

@KimmoK

Thank you for the several links of how to use Blender! That had me very interested. Look complicated to build such styled house designs, but it's nice to see that Blender makes this possible. Will definitely learn to use that
program, as well as taking a look on that CAD program
found from OS4Depot.net..

Again, thank you everybody. These should be extremely useful when the time comes.

@cha05e90

CAD for House Design :)

Thanks, this should be useful, i guess.

@pvanni and all

Then Blender should be the program, i guess.

Thank you very much!

I was thinking about CAD programs for AmigaOS4. Programs that could make use of the unique hardwares of X1000...

Are there programs where you could design your own house with advanced 3D graphic? Would be very interesting.

@Kicko

Exactly.

@retro

I know the feeling

@Joeled

Thank you so much!

Well, AFAIK latest incarnation of AmigaOS 4.1 will be pre-installed in AmigaOne X1000 as a start..

Nobody knows when AmigaOS 4.2 will be ready, but i think it's fair to say that we should keep our eyes very open in autumn and winter of this year.

@jbni

You will have to ask Trevor and A-EON about that, but i am
extremely confident that they know exactly what they are doing. They are no fools, you know. They know what they are doing. Probably more than any of us..

@xenic

Well, i understand it that Hyperion are currently working hard at making drivers for the X1000 hardwares to use
under the latest incarnation of AmigaOS 4.1, so it should
be possible. USB2, Java and SMP support will span a lot
of updates, so we will see many updates on these things
for AmigaOS4. Watch this space..

@Antique

Yes, a very nice setup!

@Kicko

No, i am not going to do that mistake again overclocking such an excellent treasure like this. That would be terrible


Will simply run the system as it is, and expand at a later date..

@All

Well, the second core of the CPU and more RAM support might be possible to see in AmigaOS 4.2, according to
some information that leaked out about what Hyperion
Entertainment will be working on the way forward...

I do not complain. This is just wonderful.

@metalmac

Might come some pictures or/and video in the following days, but then again, Trevor will surprise us
