And all that "this is new chapter for the amiga community" and those who and what says .. like presidents and some journalist make a news-papers for us :) I not president, so can't says "kas1e add: all we just need now its more os4 developers for develop the os4 itself", but still imho that we need just full payed os4 devs in core team. That the most important part currently, after all that new HW is here already.

"Plans are already in motion for the first collaboration and details will be released when the time is right" I will be looking forward to hear more.

It would make a possible to sell less than 100€ per mobo, if ordered quantities are big in enough. It would require more than 10 000 mobos per order. Those mobos wouldn't be state of art but at least Sam 460 level, but any way, co operations must be to get low end mobo's price low
