Looks like it'll run Pioneer. 😉

It's an old project, but David Braben has promised his release along with Elite VII. 🙄

Wow never seen those before. Makes a desktop pc look relatively crap.

looking crap?

no, turd i would say, this is outstanding, look at the mentioned price and power of it, i'm speechless.

this is as least breaking standarts as elite, i know why he said he never will do that again, this is far beyond.

erm, sorry geraldine i dindn't wan't to destroy your dreams, i'm rude i know.

if it's a consolation for you, we still have pioneer 😉

besides of that, i guess i told that once before, i feel he's allowed to do simply nothing, except yachting or golf (i would do so in his place).
