More Micro AmigaOnes Coming

[Kronos]

Of course, Genesi putting out such a specially priced machine the day after Alan pretty much declares the AmigaOne dead is a typical marketing decision by Genesi management which is designed to fragment the Amiga community and capitalize on people's disappointment from Alan's interview.

Sorry Wayne, but I think you are letting your personal problems with them block your view on reality.

The deal they stroke is real, and so is the pricing and therefore they offer would been made regardless of anything Amiga.

This "Genesi is doing this&that just because AInc/Hyperion/Eyetech...."-thing has been going on for years now, but honestly when should they have made the announcment ?

Last week when everything was sooooo o.k. on the red-side ?
When Alan declared the A1 dead ?
When Alan declared the A1 just delayed ?
When Ben starts babbling about mystery-devices and Cell ?
When someone brings up the ACK-boards ?
When Alan declares they now have an date for CPU-delivery ?
When Alan declares that this date has been missed ?
When Alan declares that the board are actually made ?

See, there is allways something going on that coincides with any blue announcment so that the conspiracy-theories can be fuelled.

Actually the Pegasos *is* sold at a loss

Define "sold at a loss".

a) cheaper than parts+assembly, clearly not the case with the Peg2 (the Peg1 may be a different matter due to the costly April-fix, but good costumer-care has to be done regardless of + or -)

b) doesn't pay for all running costs, well thats quite naturally when you want to build a market (and just as a sidenote, under this definition OS4 is also sold at a loss).

c) units sold sofar didn't recoup all development-cost (on top of a+b), well under this definition every new car model is sold at a loss during the first 2-3 production years, and didn't Alan just recently state that he would still be in the red with his A1-adventure ?
