Hyperion Entertainment CVBA and A-EON Technology CVBA announce strategic partnership

Hyperion Entertainment and A-EON have entered into a strategic partnership to provide the Amiga community with a dedicated high-end PowerPC based platform for AmigaOS 4.x which aspires to be a worthy of the Amiga hardware tradition going back to the original Amiga 1000 from Commodore.

The massively expandable AmigaOne X1000 will inspire both current and former AmigaOS users and will also appeal to those looking to exploit the incredibly versatile onboard functionality offered by the unique ?Silicon Defined Silicon? technology from XMOS (www.xmos.com) which, in true Amiga tradition, provides the AmigaOne X1000 with a custom chipset of potentially unparalleled flexibility and scalability.

Software development by Hyperion to bring AmigaOS 4.1, the most advanced incarnation of AmigaOS ever, to the AmigaOne X1000 hardware has been ongoing for quite some time and is progressing very well.

More details about the AmigaOne X1000 hardware and housing will be forthcoming from A-EON Technology shortly.

I just noticed this recently. Very interesting! Very interesting, indeed, and very promising!

This proves that AmigaOne X1000 is NOT vaporware!

Me got very excited! Partytime, everybody!

@Helgis

Yes,and let's hope they get the web site ready soon too.
Then the trolls will have one less thing to shout about.

@Antique

Real Trolls have always somethings to say ...

@TrevorDick
I hope so :) . But better that the web site is done well but slowly, rather than fast but badly, because the latter gives trolls something new to jump on.

@ChrisH

i agree. otherwise soon we will hear something like this:

'' they claim for a high end motherboard but... but the X in the logo is too small''

@All

The funny thing is that when this was debated in AmigaWorld, there were are great couple being sceptical and even claimed that AmigaOne X1000 is vaporware..

But the persons representing the alliance between Hyperion Entertainment and A-EON Technology, managed to prove them wrong...

Funny situation, isn't it?

@Antique

Hehe, i know what trolls. The great couple of them from AW, yeah. I have noticed

Well, the alliance was formed yesterday, so i bet around a week or two A-EON should be ready with the site and enough information. Definitely worth feasting the eyes on!

@amije

Too true! I left the amigaworld.net website to get away from most of that crap. Even with a few whiners at Amigans.net, it's way better than Amigaworld.

@All

Please, let's keep on topic here. Stop the bashing of other websites and stop calling other people trolls.

@orgin

Point taken, and a very important one, too...

Will do...

@Antique

this is great news but we need to see a web page with a pre-order button to be happy

that will just mean people will call it a preorder scam.

you cant win.

giving an email address to register interest so a-eon can email everyone when its available is a good option though

@amije

Hehe, how big do you want the X logo to be?

Remember: "X marks the spot!"
