Preorderovano. Amazon šalje tek od 31. maja. Planiram da je držim u firmi, baš me zanima kako će klinci da reaguju.

Da li je pokusao neko da spakuje minipc/raspberry PI/laptop u kuciste od neispravne amige 500/600/1200?

Vidim na netu da su ljudi radili sa Pi ali sve od kitova, novo livena kopija kucista pravljena za PI, mehanicka tastatura sa amiga rasporedom, sve skupo ko djavo mozes novi PC da kupis za te pare.

Kapiram da bi najveca muka bila tastatura, mada ni tu ne bi bio neki preteran problem da se dizajnira pcb, arduino mikro i prepravi firmware, a i onda moras nekako da nabavis keycaps za moderne sviceve sto bi verovatno kostalo vise od svega ostalog zajedno.

Postoje konvertori amigina tastatura -> usb. Razmišljao sam, svojevremeno, da pokušam tako nešto (imam jedno A500 kućište koje stoji prazno). Nisam uspeo da nadjem vremena da se posvetim tome. A nije mi ni bilo toliko bitno na kraju. A500 sa Vampirom, A1200 sa SD karticom kao dH0, Nintendo Switch na kom je instaliran UAE4ALL, i kraju MacBook sa FS-UAE.

Mislim da sam pokriven sa Amigama

Edit:

ovako nešto:

Znam za te konvertore, nekako mi je zao da to uradim, da potrosim original tastaturu na ovako nesto. Ja sam fan dizajna ne sistema, nikada nisam imao Amigu, koristio bi ovo umesto kompa u dnevnoj sobi koji realno ne palim.



Resenje je da koristim blank 1.25U tastere za funkcijske tastere, ne uklapa se bas savrseno ali je ok, i blank 1.5U za Del i Home. Ovo mi je najverovatnije sledece bacanje para.

Pitam se zašto svi sem Sege cjepidlače sa brojem ubačenih igara u sistem.

[DeCoy]

Zato što ovde možeš nesmetano preko USBa da ubacuješ igre, a licence za igre koje dolaze sa A500 mini treba da se plate. SEGA lako može da trpa svoje igre.

Ne izdržah, kupio sam je



Sad još da je montiram na zid iza monitora, ubacim WHDLoad igre na stik i udri...

Meni je A500 Mini postala primarni uredjaj za igranje igara sa Amige. Skinula je sa trona Amigu 1200.

Full size Amiga - Q4 2024

FULL SIZED AMIGA RELEASE UPDATE

As everyone knows, it has long been our intention to release a full-size sequel to THE A500 mini in Q1 of 2025. Despite the best efforts of our team and partners, this will sadly not be possible within that timeline.

Unfortunately, the ongoing legal disputes between Hyperion Entertainment and the Amiga parties are preventing us from proceeding with manufacturing. Many of you in 'The Amiga scene' will recall that Hyperion initiated legal action against the Amiga parties in 2018, and in 2019 they even tried, unsuccessfully, to challenge the release of THE A500 Mini, despite such interference being a "Hyperion Prohibited Action" under their 2009 Settlement Agreement.

Our friends at Amiga and Cloanto, who have supported us throughout the development of THEC64, THEVIC20, and THE A500 mini, have been working tirelessly to resolve the issue as swiftly as possible. However, our manufacturing and retail partners have chosen to postpone the release of our full-sized machine until the legal situation is fully resolved. We appreciate the disappointment and frustration that these delays cause, but unfortunately the situation is completely beyond our control.

In the near future, we will share more details about the machine itself, including images, features and software line-up, including one brand new game that will make its debut on the machine. We will also issue a revised release date which will be as soon as is practically possible.

Thank you for your continued patience and support. We do understand that you are as frustrated as we are. Whilst these legal issues do not directly involve us, they do of course have an effect on what we do. Everyone is working hard to resolve these issues as quickly as possible, and we believe that a resolution is in sight.

In the light of the ongoing delays, we think it's only fair to share with you that the machine is to be called….
