I happily invested in AROS because it was affordable for the amount of use I'd get out of it. I did the same for MorphOS for exactly the same reason. If that mythical AmigaOS netbook for around 300 smackers had showed had shown up, I would have gladly invested in it.
But 1k to 3k just so I can call myself a "true Amigan?" Sorry, it's not only a bad business strategy, it's just plain stupid and bashing it is perfectly valid.
Two cents...
No, its at least 250 euros for SAM 440 board to be able to use it.
Would love if it would be different, but it isn`t. Off course, if you wish
better hardware, cost goes higher.
Well, considering performance on Classics and lowest SAM 440s of 500-600Mhz net book would be of limited use, even it would be affordable.
But we do hope for better lower end system. My vote goes for building a next Acube board and lowering price of SAM 460 Lite.
A-EON will remain in high end high cost region, kind like MacPros.
