Default I've got my X1000 :-)
My X1000 arrived a couple of days ago. I've booted it up and had a look around, but I haven't got any new software to install yet.

I'm really happy. Pity I have to still use Windoze at work though.

Would you trade it for my Amiga Mini ? Please add 400€ on top of it and put in an envelope inside the X1000 case
Thank you!

on topic: Enjoy using the thing after you get OS4.x installed
EDIT: sorry misread, you have the OS already, but no software...

Don't worry. There's plenty of software. Much of it is old & some of it is a bit buggy, but it's still a pleasure to be using an Amiga again.

I have every intention of getting a Mac Mini & install MorphOS too. Pity I can't install MorphOS on the X1000 :-(

As for this comment, I had a strange thought about it just at that moment. I use an Win7 ASUS i7 Quad Core 8GB HD16:9 Laptop at work and it's fine as a tool and it lets me do everything I need to at work each day but I tell you, I'm glad it's not my Amiga X1000. Since it's great to keep it completely seperate.

This of course would be completely different if I worked in my own business (I own my own but I don't work there) so further down the road when I leave my current employment because my business needs me I'll seriously consider getting a few more X1000s for my office and perhaps phase them in for the staff, the higher achievers perhaps

No you're not going to run MorphOS on an X1000.
But you could buy a Powerbook.
That's what Trevor said he recently bought in anticipation of MorphOS' 3.0 release (you've got to really like that guy - he's definitely one of us).
