Hi everyone,

Thanks for visiting Old School Game Blog. 🙂

Good news for those of you who are waiting for the Tabor – A1222 to be released. 🙂

On the 23rd of December 2019, A-Eon Technology made this press release:

A-EON A1222 Plus Limited Edition: pre-registration and special AAA bundle

A-EON Technology is pleased to announce pre-order registration for the limited edition A1222 Plus Early Adopter motherboard.

The Early Adopter release is based on the original Tabor motherboard which has been under extended beta test for the past four years. Due to obsolescence, several minor onboard components need to be replaced and A-EON, with assistance from its hardware developers, has commissioned the production of 100 motherboards for a limited manufacturing run. Hyperion Entertainment’s developer & beta test teams are working on the updated AmigaOS 4.1 distribution, while the ExecSG team is optimising kernel performance for the A1222 Plus.

Each Early Adopter system will include a full AmigaOS 4.1 EA digital licence supplied by Hyperion Entertainment and have access to regular file and driver updates as soon as they become available. The A1222 Plus Early Adopter limited edition is available at a special low price of: GB£ 350, €400 or US$ 450*.
