Ox1: the £6,999 AI computer that promises to tell no one
OxOn is taking pre-orders for a self-contained AI computer running its own operating system, with models stored on the machine rather than accessed through a subscription service.
Field notes
Ox1 is described as a fixed-format computer running OxOnOS, with AI models stored on its internal disk and controls for asking questions, handling files, monitoring activity, and changing system settings. The standard hardware includes an NVIDIA Blackwell RTX 5090, while graphics and storage can be specified. The public presentation emphasizes a physical network-cable test, a £6,999 ex-VAT starting price, and a pre-release operating-system build rather than a conventional hosted software account.
