@vox

What are you going to do with your X1000 once you get it?

Must resist snide comment about moving icons about and snapshotting folders.

I am surprised that there are so many Amiga users spending over US$3,000 on the X1000 computer. :eek:

I remember many users bitchin' in the 90s that their 512k KS 1.2/1.3 A500 were unable to use the latest software.

How times have changed! :biglaugh:

All us cheap Amiga users are using MorphOS on G4/G5 machines. :lol:

The even cheaper tightwads are using AROS on their old previous PC they didn't throw away.

I'm surprised how much joy I get using my AmigaONE X1000 next to my Amiga1000 and Amiga1200 :-)
btw, take a guess which miggy cost me the least:sealed:

for the record, I never regretted buying ANY of my Amiga gear over the years BUT still regret selling some of it:roflmao:

[takemehomegrandma]

Well I would not call myself rich, but in debt to have X1000.

I'm very sad to read this!

High goals deserve high sacrafice.

Eh?

The sacrifice is obvious, but what goals?

:confused:

I know that feeling all too well.

I sold my BPPC/240 for 250 quid and will regret it to the day I die.

@Stephen if you are reading this,

If you aren't using it, any chance you'll sell it back to me for the same generous price I sold it to you at?

I promise i'll use it to develop OS4 software.

Well, in capitalism you have to take loans, that gives a whole machinery a fuel and keeps you obligated.

Goal ... to have a high end Amiga of my choice once in life. To keep its use to maximum as it allows it. To support development of OS as much as I can as user (Buying software, supporting websites, reporting bugs, making reviews ...), to experience AmigaOS 4 to its best (compared to SAM 440 and second hand experiences on SAM 460 and PPC expanded Classic).

That would summ it So no-no for new phone and tablet and mighty PC or Mac or even a used car, but yes to X1000

Nicholas, there is unused SAM 440 at Amiga Bounty as loaner, for a start.

I am sure they eventualy bought 1MB FAST, but in the end we all needed 040-060 or even PPC with lost of RAM. And many have given equivalent if $3000.

So, times change as well as hardware, but Amiga seems not to be a cheap game, especially as it went out of mainstream market. But somehow I still prefer supporting strange alternative.
