Accelerators with DLC´s is that a good idea?


Jens has said that this the test of a new business model and if it's successful he'll use it for future products

These are the positive and negative points from my perspective.

Positive points:

The same board can be sold at different performance/price points meaning cheaper production costs, which benfit the customer.

The base model, at under £60, is the cheapest brand new A1200 memory card for a long while, if ever.

If you want more power and memory in the future it only costs about £30 to access the card's full potential, rather than having to spend a further £90 or more to buy a more powerful replacement card.

Negative points:

The psychologic aspect of accepting a different business model to what you have always been used to.  That only really has to be a problem for people who want it to be.
