Maybe you are right, but countless times Frieden brothers told that they
reached
the performance border of 603/604 setups...Even your company Hyperion
removed
Sin, Soldier OF Fortune from the Amiga projects page..I guess Hyperion will
open
a AmigaOne projects page in the near future...

If AmigaOne is updated to latest standarts, that is good..But Eyetech/Escena
says nothing...
Because of the fact that AmigaOne needs an Elbox or Eyetech Tower, A1200
until AmigaOS 4.2
it won't break sales records...I have a Micronik Infinity Tower, in order to
use AmigaOS 4.0 I have to buy
a Elbox Tower...For the price of a Elbox Tower, I can buy Matrox G450 or
extra SDRAM for AmigaOne...
It can be a commercial suicide, but maybe AmigaOne board should be delayed
until AmigaOS 4.2 (or at least until USB drivers are finished). Releasing
AmigaONE
with A1200 requirement is like releasing Freespace with debug source
included...
If the AmigaOne board doesn't work correctly because of the A1200
motherboard
and customers see this, it will be very hard for Escena and Eyetech to make
people
believe that AmigaOne is a good motherboard as stand alone
I think Hyperion shouldn't turn his back to Pegasos, even if MorphOS team
has in deep relation with the board..More hardware will bring more customers
for Hyperion and also more income...
Thanks...
