Eyetech posted more AmigaOne information on the AmigOne ML : Comment 36 of 56 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Mika Hanhijärvi on 26-Feb-2002 16:33 GMT | In reply to Comment 27 (J4yDubs): Well lets see. I just checked MAC prices here in capital-area of Finland. iMAC with G3 600Mhz seems to cost about 1470 EUR. Even if you think that AmigaOne motherboard would cost about 700 EUR, including VAT and shipping. Then iMAC is still about 770EUR more expensive than Amigaone motherboard. You will get HUGE heap of hardware with that 770EUR.
iMAC has specs like this:
- Power PC G3 @ 600MHz
- 256MB RAM
- 40GB HD
- CD-RW
- Internal 15" monitor
- ATI RAGE 128 Ultra 16Mt SDRAM
- 10/100Base-T Ethernet
- 56Kbps data/fax modem
- 2x FireWire -liitäntä (400Mbps)
- 2x USB -liitäntä (12Mbps)
- Apple Pro keyboard and mouse
Now lets see cheapest component prices here in capital-area of Finland (There is one page which I can use as a source)
- Power PC G3 @ 600MHz is in Amigaone motherboard
- 256 MB, 133 MHz SDRAM - 83EUR
- Maxtor DiamondMax 40 Gt - 109EUR
- LG 16x/10x/40x IDE CD-RW GCE-8160B - 105EUR
- Samsung SyncMaster 551S 15" - 169EUR
- ATI Rage Pro 128 MAXX 32 Mt AGP - 40EUR
- NIC is in AmigaOne motherboard.
- 56k modem AMR - 10EUR
- AmigaOne does not have firewire.
- 2xUSB is in AmigaOne motherboard + 2 more in headers
- Logitech Cordless Desktop (mouse+keyboard) - 63EUR
- ATX Miditower + PSU - 37EUR
Total amount is 616EUR. So AmigaOne will be with atleast 154EUR cheaper than iMAC.
(770-616=154)
Note that I used new componnts. If you choose different components or use
secondhand componts the price might be even lower. |
