You don't get it because CUSA is involved in something completely unfamiliar to the modern Amiga enthusiast: marketing.
absolutely. i only discovered the modern world after seeing a video from @danwood and reading a review over at OSnews. i know that hyperion and the MOS development teams seem wholly focused on people already 'in the know,' but you'd be surprised how many hobbyists out there are interested in stuff like this. not just ex-amigans, but people who used ataris, people who want something, well,
different.
and, no, none of our modern amiga solutions can effectively compete on a price/performance basis with consumer-grade x86/x64 kit, but then again, the CUSA products are more expensive than their competitors as well.
with most social media now online and, for the most part, free, i don't see why hyperion, the MOS development team, AROS enthusiasts,
et al, don't start some marketing activities. the X1000 got rather a lot of press, and that was just because of a few emails. imagine how much more so with dedicated marketing. even if it only attracts a few hundred new users (rather than the untold masses that will know about CUSA), that's still a healthy increase in numbers.
