@Sicky,

As we say it New Zealand:-

It's fast as (on my AmigaONE X1000)

TrevorD

Yes, very impressive video stats,

TrevorD

Same here. I presume it is to do with the recent spate of account hacking?

TrevorD

I just installed AmiCygnix on my shiny new machine.

Amicygnix was OK on my overclocked Peg II but it is now so much better! Netsurf and the Gimp are now very useable.

@Antique

Show-off!

TrevorD

Quick note to all Amigans. It seems my accounts on Amigans (and Amiga.org and AmigaWorld.net) were hacked by person or persons unknown.

Anyway, thanks to the speedy administrators I an now back in control of my Amigans.

Happy New Year

TrevorD

Aw shucks.

Thanks for all the nice comments. Mad, possibly but it's good to know there are a lot of people who share my passion for the Amiga.

I will not get my investment back (this I have already written off). However, I'm please to report that the last time I checked with AmigaKit the AmigaOne X1000 "First Contact" production run was over subscribed almost 2:1.

TrevorD

This is a very difficult question to answer.

However, just like many people have a soft spot for their first car (or girlfriend ) I would have to choose the Amiga 2000 which was my first Amiga.

OK it may not have been technically the best machine but it was my first Amiga experience.

@Amigo1

Personally, I really like the temporary A-EON website. (I suppose I would say that). It's quirky, a bit amiga-like and information is very easy to find. However, we will need to update the site and Richard has certainly put a lot of effort into his "mock up"design. Well done.

TrevorD

@djrikki

Looking good.

@nbache

I've got an excellent photo of the boys standing behind the AmigaOne X1000 with AmigaOS4.1 U2 running and the A-EON display in the background - and they are smiling. An Amiga 25th Anniversary Hollywood demo is also running on the screen. It's a very good photo and definitely one for the photo album. I plan to post it on the A-EON website.

TrevorD

@magic

Thanks Magic. Do you have a picture with the Varisys group taken at the end of the presentation?

TrevorD

@Chris

Thanks Chris, but I've got several like this and a nice one of the Frieden's face on with OS4.1 & Boing Ball running on the A1-X1000 with the display in the background. I really need a shot taken with the Varisys group shot taken at the end.

Anyone?

TrevorD

@Swisso

Thanks but the will need high resolution pictures. Perhaps an upload to google docs (or other) and link would be better?

TrevorD

Edit: spelling

This is a request for any copies of high quality pictures or videos of the A-EON stand, Amiga X1000, A-EON/Hyperion/Varisys group shot taken at the VCF show at the weekend. We have received request from several mainstream PC magazines and the BBC for high quality pictures for articles/programs they are planning about the AmigaOne X1000.

Many thanks,

TrevorD

@Swisso

Agreed! But can you warn me next time if you are planning to bring a different partner?

TrevorD

Thanks also from A-EON & Hyperion & A-Cube for the effort and excellent organisation put in by the Mickey and the boys. It was so good to seen so many like-minded Amigans come together in one place to celebrate the Amiga's 25th Anniversary. Quite fitting too, that it was at Bletchley Park, one of the spiritual homes of modern electronic computing.

Well done to everyone involved.

TrevorD

PS almost got my voice back.

@tommo1975


Sorry to everyone all for the sound quality at the presentation. I only found out 10 mins before we were down to give one. It was all very last minute, although I found out later that it was in the actual Event programme. Unfortunately, no one told me! The Amiga "tent"was always busy, especially around the A-EON/Hyperion/ACube area, the suddenly the tent seemed to fill up and it seemed that 100's of people crowded around the A-EON area.

I also apologise if everyone who tried to talk to me couldn't get access. As you will see from the videos that have been posted I almost lost my voice.

The OS4 build was only completed the day before and contained a lot of debug code. I expect it to be up to full speed the next time in A1-X1000 is shown in public at the Essen show next month. However, Blender was running on it at various times during the day. One cool thing I need spot was the ability to change the processor speed on the fly, and at one stage we stepped down to 500Mhz then up to 1,8GHz. Whether that makes it into the final version?

My thanks go to Stephane, Costel and the Friedens who did so much work over the past few weeks to bring this all together in time for the show.

Also thanks to Mikey C & team for all the organisation. Great job AS a thankyou for all their effort we had many of the A1-X1000 hardware and software developers and A-EON management signed a "Boing Ball" tie. Unfortunately we didn't have a dog's paw print but Paul Gentle's 2 year old son added his mark! Mikey will be auctioning the tie to raise money for his Amiga group.

TrevorD (aka the bloke)

Wow, you guys are good! Bounty total reached and exceeded.......again!!!


Well done to everyone who donated.
