What a shame!
The picture i see is a pc mainboard with a stick saying: AmigaOne. Nothing more.
And what is the Agnus evolution? it is a VIA?
Paula evolution is a VIA686B AC'97?
Zorro3 evolution is PCI?
Denise and Agnus is a PC VGA in a AGP slot?
It is a shameful way to try to sell that to the "Amiga religious" people.
Amiga evolution was simply stopped years ago, and now it try to take the non-stopped evolution of the PCs.

Dammit, stop kicking a dead horse ....
Forget the hardware, focus on making a x86 operating system from root...

it's sad, actually... why would anyone buy amiga hardware these days? enough second hand stuff, and one could always use an emulator as well...
it anything, they might consider going totally pc hardware based and port the os, that might be interesting

@Num3:

Hardware, and to some extent, software still keeps on getting cheaper, so never say never.
Check
out some of the retro stuff here:
http://www.retrothing.com/classic_computing/index.html
Some of the oldest stuff listed there are actually reproduced and sold today.
Actually I'm bidding for a retro 'laptop' at ebay.uk right now, 16 mins left!

Yes that's true... sad enough!
I'm going to sell my trusty old A3000 and two A500s soon. Why should I keep them? I use an emulator when I wanna run Amiga stuff.
Don't know about the A3000, though - maybe I'll keep it on a shelf for sentimental reasons.
I'll think I'll do the same with my SGI Indigo2 and HP Alpha 715 Unix workstations, but they take a lot of space...
