In Amiga.org thread "AmigaOne G3SE is here! now!" someone reports they got their new AmigaOne on Thursday and others say their Swedish dealer has them now for deliver on next Tuesday. Some problems are reported with IDE connectors and stability.
Quotes:
"my local (well swedish atleast) dealer has got the first batch SEs! That means that all the people that has ordered a A1Se from GGSDATA in sweden will have their A1s by Tuesday!"
"The newer IDE connectors have a pin missing and the cables also lack a hole for it. Apparently the A1 has IDe connectors with all pins so you have to have a cable with all holes or you have to bend a pin."
"btw DMA is enabled but is a little unstable atm so easier to have it switched off. It is being worked on... A number of developers have it sorted but it hasn't quite reached us 'normal' folk yet."

AmigaOne's arrive, minor problems : Comment 154 of 171 | ANN.lu |
Posted by AmiTroll on 17-Dec-2002 18:03 GMT | In reply to Comment 151 (Alkis Tsapanidis): You forgot one Alkis,
PPC AmigaOS on long awaited PPC hardware.
Not emulated, ported. Not Amiga-like, Amiga.
But then, gateway IS a wintel company, why hold
that aginst Ainc? And as far as DE goes, do you
really care so much if Amiga takes a share in
the handheld devices market just because its
mostly filled with linux and M$ devices? Your
jokeing right? The desktop market is flooded
with wintel boxes, should Amiga exit this market
too?
I suppose you will say that fleecy and bill worked
for gateway and can only have a wintel mindset. But
then that overlooks the fact that they inked the
deals with Hyperion and Eyetech to bring out new hw
and an upgraded OS and only because this itty bitty
Amiga market asked for it. I don't see what your on
about.
If you just want to hack on Ainc (for whatever reason)
more power to you, but do pick up some credible
arguments first. Snapping back at someone with half
truths and inuendo hardly makes you look good. :)
