Bonjour,
Je me permets Hivernal voici la lettre en question je suppose.
London 21st December 2010
A-EON Technology is pleased to finally reveal the identity of the mystery CPU powering the AmigaOne X1000. It’s none other than the uber cool PWRficient PA6T processor developed by fabless chip designer PA Semi. The PA6T-1682M is a high performance, low power, cool running dual-core, 64-bit, 2GHZ Power CPU specifically designed for embedded industrial and military applications. PA Semi was acquired by Apple in 2008 and all the indications were that they purchased the company for the technology and planned to shut down the PA Semi product line. However, following demand from military and industrial users, Apple agreed to continue supplying chips to pre-existing PA Semi customers for a limited time period. Fortunately Varisys, our hardware partner, had a long-standing relationship with PA-Semi and we were able to secure a supply of PA6T CPUs for the AmigaOne X1000 project, making it the first and most probably the last desktop computer based on the unique PA-Semi CPU technology as Apple have now closed down the PA-Semi product line.
After reading a statement by Thom Holwerda, the Managing Editor of OSNews website announced in an AmigaWorld.net forum, “I can assure you all, with 110% certainty, that the X1000 will NOT carry a processor from PA Semi. If it turns out it does, I will eat my socks and post the video as proof”, we decided to give him an exclusive on revealing the identity of the AmigaOne X1000 CPU. Rather than issuing the usual staid press release and forcing Thom to eat his own socks we decided to take pity on him and shipped him a special cake decorated with a pair of edible « Boing Ball » socks with a note saying the cake was a gift from A-EON Technology. Read Holwerda’s exclusive report on OSnews:-

Special thanks go to premier Amiga developer Davy Wentzler who helped to coordinate the production and delivery of the special “Boing Ball” sock cake.

Merci pour ces infos K-L
Salut tout le monde,
Je voudrais revenir un peu plus sur la base de ce topic. Moi aussi j’ai été un ancien amigaïste et, tout comme zeGouky, je retrouve un regain d’intérêt pour tout ce petit monde. Cependant il reste encore quelques points d’ombre sur cette sam440ep… enfin pour moi. Aussi je m’excuse pas avance si ces questions peuvent vous sembler un peu hors de propos. Alors je me lance …
1) LA SAM bien qu’elle soit de format différent, supporte-t-elle une alimentation de type ATX [y a bien un connecteur mais tout le monde parle d’un autre type d’alim ] ??
2) LA SAM supporte le SATA mais effectue-t-elle du RAID1 ?? A mon avis non mais je voudrais confirmer.
3) Est-ce que tous les types de cartes WIFI [respectant l’alimentation du port PCI de la SAM ] sont reconnues par l’AmigaOS 4.1 [Ce qui m’arrangerait c’est que l’OS reconnaisse les cartes HERCULES] ??
Merci pour vos réponses
PS : Question subsidiaire. Est-ce que l’on pourrait pas avoir une petite démonstration de l’amigaos 4.1 et de la sam sur PARIS et sa région.
Je suis également preneur pour l’extension mémoire !!! Tiens nous au courant…
