I REALLY don't get why the SAM+OS isn't  simply listed as ONE price since you can't buy a SAM without AmigaOS?


Because that will make it look as expensive as it really is?
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

ACube says the 460 is not replacing the 440 so I think the low end will still be the 440 667Mhz which is closer to $700 with the OS;didn't realize the AEon  was $1900.
 Sometimes I lose track of  if discussion is euros,dollars, or pounds!


Yeah, and if prices are quoted with or without VAT, different VAT percentage in different countries, price quotes for motherboard alone vs. quotes for complete systems, and price quotes including OS4 or excluding it. Much to keep in mind when doing comparisons!

If the euro continues to fall against the  US$ I MAY be able to afford MorphOS registration!

I think the EUR will continue to fall to about 1 EUR =1.20 US$ by end of May. But probably then stabilize a bit above that level for the next time (many months). But if 1.18 falls I think the next hard hurdle will be the 1:1 ratio. But the chance we will see the 1.18 falling is rather low in my expectation. Not only the ECB will strongly try to avoid that, but also China. They are way too afraid of cheap European exports. They will then attack the US$ for getting weaker  (or, more unlikely because way more difficult/expensive, try to push up the EUR). They definitely have the liquidity to attack the US $ (something they currently use/build up to justify the under value worth of the Renminbi).

Yep, I've still got a Mac Mini in mind if I can't get a 060 for my 1200 for under $600.

Either way, I still have a Mac Mini in mind. :)

I'm still kind of let down by the fact that you can't even upgrade the CPU on these things. If a CPU card is too expensive then at least allow a CPU socket.
