Chris Follett, AmigaKit's lead technician, has produced a quick video of the AmigaOne X1000 booting to AmigaOS4.1 Update 3. Chris apologized for the quality but he only had time to run off a quick video in between setting up and testing Nemo 2.1 motherboards. He has promised to produce another video showing AmigaOS4 running various demos when he has more time.

Varisys Ltd, the aerospace/defence hardware specialists and our partners in the AmigaOne X1000 development have posted several new pictures of the Nemo motherboard on their Facebook page.
