Since the 10 questions a week are going nowhere, how about we ask Bill Mueller 10 questions a week on how he designed the AmigaOne?

He told some asian company "this is a teron reference board, we want something based on this with the following specs, make it so" ;)

Easy no?

Cheers

I've got a cold and it feels like my cranium is filled with snot, maybe that's why I don't get the joke?

Mueller is a Mai Logic engineer. He's the main guy behind all their PCB/mobo designs. He got the task to make a reference/evaluation mobo based on the Articia S, so he made one. It became known as the Teron CX, followed by the PX and now the Mini. Eyetech found out about the CX and decided to sell these as "AmigaOnes".

Easy, no?

But 10 questions a week is a funny idea. :)

"What's your favourite food?"
"teh new aimga si teh r0xx0rz dont you agree???????? how i use cute smiley in email???? ktnx!!!!!11"
"How did you design the AmigaOne?"
"Do you know Gerald Carda?" [QUESTION DELETED: TROLL!!! /Mikey_BCDEF]

Reply: WTF? Boss, what are these people doing in my inbox?

It takes years of training, Ian.

(But yeah, I think this thread and the original post are meaningless.)

Let's start a new discussion. Why won't my name/e-mail be saved in a cookie?

Now that's stupid. Some CEO's have something more to do that reply stupid questions. And I presonaly think that communication with BBRV is good, He always reply my e-mail and questions on IRC.

hi Opi, I think they are refering to Bill Mueller, the designer of the AmigaOne board.
