{{Short description|A series of computers intended to run AmigaOS 4}} {{Use mdy dates|date=September 2015}} [[File:AmigaOne X1000 01.jpg|thumb|300x300px|[[AmigaOne X1000]]]] '''AmigaOne''' is a series of computers intended to run [[AmigaOS 4]] developed by [[Hyperion Entertainment]], as a successor to the [[Amiga]] series by [[Commodore International]]. Unlike the original Amiga computers which used [[Motorola 68k]] processors, the AmigaOne line uses [[PowerPC]] processors. Earlier models were produced by [[Eyetech]]; in September 2009, Hyperion secured an exclusive licence for the AmigaOne name and subsequently new AmigaOne computers were released by A-Eon Technology and [[Acube Systems]]. ==History== ===AmigaOne by Eyetech (2000–05)=== {{quote|A week ago we shared with you our joy as we move towards the rebirth of the Amiga desktop platform.

The main difference between the [[ATX]]-format AmigaOne SE and '''AmigaOne XE''' was that the SE had a soldered-on 600 MHz [[PowerPC G3#PowerPC 750CXe|PowerPC 750CXe]] processor, whereas the XE used a CPU board attached to a MegArray connector on the motherboard. While the MegArray connector is physically similar to the [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] [[Power Mac G4]] CPU daughtercard connector, it is not electrically compatible. There were [[PowerPC G3|G3]] and [[PowerPC G4|G4]] options with a maximum clock frequency of 800 MHz and 933 MHz. The G4 module originally used a Freescale [[PowerPC G4#PowerPC 7450 .22Voyager.22.2F.22V.27ger.22|7451]] processor which was later changed to a Freescale [[PowerPC G4#PowerPC 7445.2F7455 .22Apollo 6.22|7455]], both without level 3 cache. The G4 CPU runs hotter and requires a better heatsink than that supplied on some machines. Consequently, the G4 was often supplied underclocked to run at 800 MHz.
