A NEW AMIGA!!!

On the board pic here, I can make out
normal PCI and PCI-e slots, 4 x SATA, prolly PATA,
something that looks like mini-PCI-e.
On the DIMM side, those seem to be two different tech
DIMMs, possibly the ones above DDR2, the ones below
DDR3?

@Vassilis

Welcome


The cpu is most likely a dual core....

It has 2 PCI-E x16
3 pci-e x1 (if i remember right)
2 pci

4 mem slots. A minimum of 4gig ram.

8 usb2.0
onboard sound
ethernet port(most likely gigabit)

Impressive if you ask me

on some Amiga related sites I read it's a new mobo ("PC like" like Sam) little they know its actually a full computer with custom chips!
Beyond the sweetest dreams IMHO!

@Hondo and all

I just noticed it recently. I am actually 99% sure that Hyperions' secret project is a brand new Amiga. Dual-Core and with state-of-the-art todays' technology..

Hyperion seem to have a lot of great plans, and they truly want to bring the Amiga back to the frontline again! They know that we no longer can accept the Amiga to be ONLY a hobby system, but so much more!

Great news! Happy new year, folks!

@Helgis

good to see you here Helgis ..say are you still banned from AW?? so when are we gonna see the first 'think I'm gonna buy AmigaX' threads

@Hondo

It seems from helgis' profile that he is resricted from AW for like 10000 days!!! What is that all about???

Anyways good to see a fellow amigan on here getting excited about this NEW AMIGA!! Not sure how i will hide it from the missus but who cares eh!!! She can have my windoze laptop....good riddence to it

Amiga 2010....We Are Back!!!!

Something tells me you are NOT going to buy that second-hand Pegasos, Helgis

Welcome to amigans.net!

@trixie

I was just thinking that myself. That thread with helgis and his possible peg 2 was a long thread, but nothing compared to the current thread at AW, over 1600 posts now. Anyway, i'm thinking of a way to tell my wife we will not be going on holiday this year.....New Amiga...2010 is truely the promised land found for me !!

Tomorrow is the big day but this gives a bit more info...

@JeffShepherd

ahh a new Amiga Nemo! they can have the boing ball, checkmark and little clown fish from the movie as logos

@328gts

The boing ball with a nice AMIGAOS underneath would do fine for me!!!

@JeffShepherd

Is tomorrow the day that all will be revealed? Or are there more days of riddles???

@Antique

Thx for the welcome
Oh and happy new year hehehe

Been checking regularly for this MAP of Hyperion's,
glad to see they actually have something in the works

Kinda gets my blood pumping, just thinking of a capable
machine with all the expansion possibilities hehehe.
2010 is starting with a bang it seems.

Let's see what we'll see today/tomorrow

@Antique

Among other stuff I found this in the HTML source of tomorrow's page:

Okay, okay. You want something more solid? Hrm. I can't really say much here. So let me just address a few rumours. No, you haven't seen this motherboard before. Yes, it's a desktop. No, the A-EON partners didn't design the Nemo board in their garages, and no it's not an evaluation board! Goodness. It was designed by a highly experienced design team to A-EON's specifications. Yes, it's high-end hardware. No, it doesn't have the number of cores you are thinking of. Whatever number you are thinking of. At least, not necessarily. No, we don't have a release date. Yes, it will be fairly soon. Yes, the software team does have functioning boards to work on already. Yes, it is the most powerful AmigaOS hardware ever. By a big margin. I did say high-end. Yes, it will come with a case. It's a computer we're making, not just a motherboard. Yes, Nemo IS just the start.

I think Helgis asked for it??? (Or was that someone else?)

Lies!

Hyperion is a software company, not hardware.
I'm sure they are still working on their OS4 port to a banana as some of us requested a long time ago.
Although bananas have only a single core, they are very popular and affordable as any banana owner can tell you.

As you can see, part of the "X" logo is yellow for a ripe banana, and also black, for the extra-ripe banana which is sometimes referred to as "rotten". Yes, OS4 will still function on even a black banana.

Helgis, I'm proud of you for being suspended from Amigaworld. Some of us left of our own will but others need a forceful push away.

@Hondo

Hyperion are not producing the hardware themselves. A company named A-Eon technology are making the hardware.

A-Eon is headed up by none other than Ben Hermans, Trevor Dickson (TrevorD on AW.net) and another fellow also from the UK (Anthony Moorley if memory serves).

Andrew Korn (apprently a well known / maybe respected?) Amiga Journo is the one behind the website of riddles.

And yes, the HTML comments indicate that tomorrow (today me for already) 5th Jan will be the final release of info. They will release 'all they can release'

Should be fun.

How do I convince my missus I should get one of these now. Hmm.

@tiffers

After seeing this for many days now I am thinking, A-EON = Amiga of the ages. Especially seeing who is in that company.

@Helgis
Glad to see you again, and I think you're not gonna get a used 800Mhz Sam either

By the way AW has just collapsed!

@ all

I think AW.net just crashed awaiting the news.
