I’m not saying you are wrong per se (I don’t have any knowledge after all, merely speculations), but AmigaKit (as a dealer) was *always* the exclusive official distributor of X1000. Even for the betatest program; when the first ever production run of X1000’s had been made (in August 2011 IIRC) Varisys sent the batch directly to AmigaKit AFAIK, and nowhere else. Same with “First Contact” later the same year, that the general public could order from AmigaKit. So it is true that AmigaKit was there from the beginning. As a dealer and system builder. Then came January 2012. And after that, the new A-Eon (without Ben Hermans but with Matt Leman) was incorporated early April 2012, right?

Do you have a date (roughly) when the Trevor and Ben Hermans cooperation finally broke down? Like, was it within the first 10 days of January 2012?
