While I have no intention to bash the x1000, any complete system costing more than 500 euro is unrealistic. This is a hobbyist machine, and most people have limited amount of money when it comes to hobbies.

My personal Amiga 1200T is worth way more than 500 EUR and a lot slower than an X1000, but it is my hobby machine.


Well at least you can play all the classic amiga games on that.

This is the problem with wanting to use AOS4.x series, you are going to have to pay serious amount of money for a system.  If you have to have AOS4.x, pay the money and be happy but please stop complaining.  There are very cheap (to free) alternatives that are readily available that are at a minimum, equal to AOS4.x experience.


Yeah I don't think complaining will make any amiga 4.x capable machines any cheaper. The only affordable future is porting the OS to arm or x86, which I think will be pretty dead before that happens.
