Not a deal I'd be willing to sign on for, that's for sure.  My time is worth money.  Are there 100 desperate souls out there?  We'll soon find out...

On the other hand a few quid wouldn't hurt in these days of the collapsing Euro...

A pre-paid beta test sucks, big time..

Yeah, I guess what you do for fun is a personal thing.  I spend way more than €1500 on other computer stuff (iPad, android tablets, Mac Mini etc), so who am I to decide how others spend there money.

This isn't a mass market machine, it'll likely never see more than a few hundred made, to some people that justifies the €1500 by itself.  I reacted strongly in the past because I wanted a cutting edge machine for a cheap price, like the original Amiga, but this isn't 1985.  The fact that there's an AmigaLike machine in 2010 that actually stacks up against low end CURRENT machines is phenomenal, to say the least.
