Look Who Flew The Nest!

[Dead1nside]

You certainly deserved it. It looks so good. The paint job looks perfect. Would love to hear your impressions after you've had time to play around with it. Thanks for sharing the pics.

Awesome. Congratulations and happy Pandora'ing, good sir!

Anyone else notice that the lid looks gold?

Incandescent light-bulbs are orange-brown, our eyes/brain compensate so we think we see white. Cameras have an indoor white balance mode to compensate, but it seems a lot of people don't use it. That's why most pics we get have that strange hue.

Congratulations to OpenPandora, and X68000!

Haven't seen the pictures pop-up on Engadget yet, but surely expecting them tomorrow morning. Else they're not name-worthy.

Tipped em off, so they'll probably be up soon

I love the name of the First Firmware Release which is Zaxxon according to the picture.

Is it the right time to punch the "vaporware twats" in the face?

It's always the right time

Very happy to see it, can't wait to read about it from all the lucky <1000. Hopefully, those of us in the 3800+ range will get them reasonably soon!

Thanks OPT!

*00000002038 If you're going for doomsday years then this one is probably most appropriate for Pandora.

yeah, ED and I were thinking about release names, so we coudl identify; a given firmware could be NAME + patches; ie: Same as Debian and Ubuntu's famous names.

We were bouncing ideas around and ED thought about starting forward, or.. backwards; and I think I said we shoudl do a theme, and it all came together. Zaxxon is the perfect, and we'll go to Y next, etc
