hould concentrate on what made the Amiga the Amiga, back in those days.

"Power without the price" was the motto, not brute force with the elegance of
a 40t-truck (and even the noise level ....).


Sorry, I disagree.

The Amiga 1000 was a dreammachin first of all because most of the people dreamed of owning so much money to afford that one.

The Amiga 3000 was the same when introduced: extremely expensive.

The A4000 was expensive, too.

The cheaper Amiga 500 brought the Amiga a  game-boy like image. Similar the A 1200.

The A500+ and A600 were way overpriced or two years too late, you decide.

The CDTV was brilliant, but not understood, and DID NOT HAVE A HARDRIVE AND NO FLOPPY!

The CD32... sigh... simply too late.

On which of these qualities should AROS concentrate?

The only really balanced Amiga was the 2000, and that was expensive, too, but offered a lot for its price.

And no, I am NOT Doomy.

Anyway, I loved my 500 and now love my A1000/Phoenixboard.



Have fun,
