New 128bit Amiga coming out this time next year

Post by ramon »

There's a new Amiga coming out, it'll be 128bit and comes bundled with Deluxe Paint 2012, a brand new version of Workbench and a game.

It's called the Amiga 1280 and is also available in piano black and it'll be out this time next year!

One about a millisecond (as somebody who still owns 3 A500s) I was really excited and then I remembered the date.... :roll: :oops: :lol:

what's the on-board graphics chipset like? is 128 bits enough? will it cope with Oolite3.0?

Its the AAGA - Awesome Advanced Graphics Architecture

Which will, just be good enough for Oolite 3.0, with it's photo-realistic, IMAX sized 3D visuals.

I applaud your effort. The model is lovely and so is the spec!

I just wish it was real... :-(
