| Hi, do you have any video you can upload to show the performance of the Natami against a normal Amiga? For example I would like to see how quick the new chips are! The website is very static! Any video showing how quickly the traditional OS run now? Thanks Leo

| Hi Leonard,
be assured, that there will be videos, as soon as the GA-level boards of the dev-series with the new FPGAs is available.
Posting today videos of the former prototype, that has been
demonstrated in public in Karlsruhe this January, or posting benchmarks of the Natami60 alpha-level-board is senseless as it does not reflect the performance of the product that you will be able to buy in a few weeks.
Possibly we will do some videos of this Karlsruhe-prototype
anyway later - just to have footage of it. But this will
also be only after the bringup of the 1st dev-series board.
The Natami60 boards are near and we need to focus on bringing them out now. We know that there could be done a lot on the website but we prefer to focus our time today on finishing the HW-development.
Stay tuned for some more weeks!

Insulting does not bring you any step further,
nor does it help the project. But it says a lot
about yourself and your intentions.

Come on dude, what's your problem? Are you threatened with losing a bet or something? You've seen the photos of the prototype, if you want videos - just wait and see. This is a "hobby" project so far and it's inappropriate to take on the consumerist approach. Relax.

| I am just trying to understand if this is another project ending in a failure or if it is something more serious! I am just trying to be realistic and finding out more info, which at the moment it is proving very difficult for an open / hobbistic project!!!! On one end there are people proposing funding and these are not accepted; on the other end there are people offering help and the only answer you get is "you can buy a developer machine, when it is ready". Maybe I am wrong here, it is just a hobby project! Leo

* The SuperAGA chipset was developed and many people have seen it live.
* We are working on getting developer board finished now to enable people to use this new AMIGA compatible technologie. I regard the successful development of the new SuperAGA as project success. The focus of the Natami team is as of today: HW-development. Our goal is to create a new affordable fully AMIGA compatible, but better than the original design. Our goal is not to sell these systems only by our selves.
We are fully aware that our development team is very good in development but not able to effectively sell these systems to the mass market. I think that as soon as the design is fully finished we will offer it to other parties, allowing them to sell it to the people. The Natami might be sold by Amiga INC, or by Acube or by Genesi.
Or big companies like NEC, Philips, Samsung might produce it.
The more companies and bigger the companies producing it, the lower the price of the product can be. This means the higher will be the chance that an affordable AMIGA will be available to the masses again. And enabling this is our main goal. Cheers

| Leo, how do you expect the creators of Natami to keep on working with comments like that? Ever thought that they spend their spare time on getting us such a great new machine - even trying to make it really affordable for everyone. The world pays with ingratitude, eh?

| Just ignore this guy, we don't want pessimistic people here. I'm looking forward for some benchmarks and videos.

Do you have questions about the Natami?
