| Hi,
I have been thinking long and hard and I'd like to change the name of my A500 inspired case...
X500 PLUS sounds too long and confusing, considering that there are the AmigaOne X1000 and the AmigaOne 500 so I'd like to ask the community to come up with a cool name.
Think '80s, computers in keyboards, not only Commodore stuff but Atari, BBC, Sinclair etc...retro but modern, it can house an x86 machine or a SAM, Natami, Raspberry pi etc...
Can you think of something short? Does it need a number, or will just a one word name suffice?
Let your creative juices flow! :-)

blackbird... reminds me of one of our first N050 name proposals. Was it Blackfire, One Thousand? :) Cheers

Thing is that in Spanish "bonito" is also a type of tuna fish. I can already hear the Atari lunatics make jokes about it in my head...

| How about "Stella" or "Stella-7".
I always liked that game.

It's the Atari lunatics that are scarred for life for owning such an inferior computer... ;) BTW, I always liked the popular English nickname for the Amiga: "Miggy". I don't think that CUSA could claim the trademark rights for that...

| Adding a number to the chosen name could be handy (if more versions are to follow) and distinctive as well. I'd like to see more recent pics of the prototype or the newest renderings, if possible :)

| How about "Lazarus"?
I remember a long time ago a disk repair utility would rename the disk "Lazarus" as in "back from the dead".
