`01.Feb.2025`	Individual Computers: known customers can preorder ACA1240/1260 Press release: In recent years, the start of production and sales of the ACA1240/1260 had to be postponed again and again. Last week the time had finally come and we opened pre-orders. Not all of the card's features have been fully developed yet, which is why all models are currently being offered at a reduced price of EUR 59.50 (incl. VAT). As soon as these features are available, they can be retrofitted free of charge with a simple flash update. The ACA1240/1260 is available with different processor versions at speeds of up to 100 MHz and always comes with 256 MB RAM. A sophisticated cooling system with temperature-controlled fan ensures a stable processor temperature even when overclocked. All technical details were already published in our support forum at the end of October. Since there have always been market participants in the Amiga sector who have only bought rare hardware with the intention of making a profit (so-called "scalpers" who offer the goods at inflated prices after selling them out), we will only sell the AC1240/1260 to known customers in the first few months. To view and order the ACA1240/1260 in our store, please create a user account and send us an e-mail so that we can activate your account. We hope that this way the small number of 68060-Rev.6 processors can be distributed fairly in the Amiga community and also customers who cannot afford the purchase price immediately have the chance to buy one of these coveted pieces. If you have previously purchased your iComp hardware from dealers, please let us know the Waranty IDs of the products - we will also use these to unlock you. (cg) [News message: 01.
