Now selling: The Amitendo64 running workbench 5.1
« on: April 08, 2011, 04:55:05 AM »
I am now offering a unique offer: The Amitendo64 for only 400 dollars!


Since there have been much talk and fuss about various competing retro computer brands lately, I thought I'd point out the various ways the amitendo64 is superior.


1: Hardware
No atom processors here. You get a good, old fashioned 2.4 ghz dual core, with 4 gigs of RAM.
We even toss in an optical drive, and a mouse!

2: Software
While the competition expects you to install linux yourself, the amitendo64 has it included already!

3: Run all the awesome games
Our competition only includes emulation of commodore machines. We boldly include Nintendo as well. So even if you grew up outside europe, you can still play games from when you were a kid

4: No dubious license questions
Many people feel concerned that competing retro computer offers may take advantage of licenses that have a complicated history. No worries! The Amitendo64 has NO licenses with anybody so you don't have to feel bad about anything!

5: Support of a trusted player in the commodore market
The amitendo64 comes with a full 20 year warranty. Just drive to the Commodore Amiga Iran office and we'll give you a full refund.

6: Doesn't look too new
Many people feel that the competing offers are too shiny, and don't "feel retro".
To insure against this, the amitendo64 is pretty dusty. We even made sure the fan is kind of grimey, so you'll have an authentic experience!

7: More advanced software.
Our unique brand of operating software (codenamed Kubuntu) is actually workbench 5.01 making it far superior than the unreleased alternatives from competing brands!

8: No pre orders
We will ship the amitendo64 to its eager recipient immediately upon payment.

9: Branding
Since we know branding is very important to people, the case will have "COMMODORE AMIGA IRAN" scrawled with a sharpie. No impersonal stickers here!

For mass orders (more than one), there is a 20 minute delay, as that's long it takes me to run over to best buy to restock.

Where's the order page?
Can I play NES Galaga on it?


Thats another advantage. Instead of a complicated order page, you can just mail the money.

It'll run any NES game totally awesome.


Also, since we know branding is very important to people, the case will have "COMMODORE AMIGA IRAN" scrawled with a sharpie. No impersonal stickers here!

The case isn't all that big, but you can probably fit a few ACA accelerators in there. If you pay cash, we'll toss in some tape so you can tape them to the inside of the case.

For FIVE, yes FIVE extra dollars - I'll get strung out on cough syrup and draw a Mitchie paw and Padre signature on the case.  (in crayon only)


See guys. This is what happens when you hire a PR guy.

PR is already taken, but if you can browse the best buy website, you can be our case designer.

Can I buy the empty case for only $300?


Absolutely. We'll even throw in an old amiga joystick you can put on your desk.
The competition doesn't do that either!

@Runequester
How do you expect anyone to take your company seriously when you don't have anyone that copies & pastes text + gfx from other websites onto your corporate HQ website? :D


Is this a job application?

Best thread ever!
ROFL, I'm gonna start saving money now so I can get in on the first batch, there are bound to be tens of thousands of orders for this!


I went to Best Buy earlier and they only had like 20 computers there. So the next 9980 customers may have to wait a bit.

Corporate expense account.. put a few more sharpies on there btw. These babies are HOT

Are you offering any specials if I call within the next thirty minutes?


If you order super quick, because I dont have that many minutes on my cell phone.

LIMITED EDITION:
I'll toss in the user guide to Jungle Strike. This is an exclusive offer that you will not find from any of the competitors. In fact, we are confident that this makes our documentation 100% more enjoyable to read.

Given that workbench 5.01 is already superior to the competition (AND pre-installed), this is a must-have purchase.
