Default Elbox Dragon Update (August 06)

Elbox has well hidden their small update about Dragon in their pages, since I noticed this update at aw.net:

(scroll all the way down if necessary)

Looks promising to me. There's a link to an old picture of the card right above it.

maybe they finally have some things up and running.

Hmm... there is a few pictures already - what would really make a difference, is showing it in action for broader audience and ofcourse - release! :-P

Nevertheless, is nice to see even little progress - considering what many think about Dragon, we can only be positively suprised. As th old saying for pessimists goes, pessimist can be happier than optimist - optimist can get depressed, if things don't goes as they should, while pessimist can only get positively suprised. In Amigaland this is more than near the truth.

[size=xx-small]Update (01 August 2006): On 27 July 2006 we had presentation of DRAGON 1200 for a Freescale Inc. representative who visited Elbox Computer. The DRAGON 1200-based system on presentation was fitted with the Radeon 9200 AGP graphic card, the Fast Ethernet network card, the Hi-Speed USB and TV tuner cards, all working under AmigaOS 3.9.[/size]

Some old pictures of production version:
