Amiga One desktop - not really for me. The apps wont be there for me to warrant buying one. But a 1ghz Amiga One laptop - we'll there is just enough of a gimmick there to persuade me to place my pennies in the hands of whoever makes them....

Seriously - I'm begining prefer laptops to desktops. What would be very cool would be to have a fast A1 laptop - that could have some mac emulation. I could be on a train - doing my work on an A1 (Ibook's etc are so very expensive for what they are). Any rendering stuff - things that require computing brute force - I could send to my desktop PC. I could then keep the PC for automated stuff. but then I'd have to buy Mac versions of the software as well ...... crap. A1 laptop PC emulation I imagine wouldnt be that great... bugger. Oh well another 3 seconds to draw by 8.00am.

I've been to the site - it loaded instantly -  wow my connection is actually being like a T1 at the moment - must be the time of day.

OQO is a nice idea - more PDA like - but it has enough grunt and features to make it very usefull. Is this the type of device that Amiga.Inc are aiming to target?



Just adding this - last night my download speed was a lousy 3 kbs - thats usually fast for me. This morning I'm hitting 80 kbs. College charge us for a so called t1 - well it looks like they finally fixed it. Great its taken them 5 months and I finish my degree in 9 days........  :-x  This really pisses me off - they could have fixed it earlier - when I needed fast downloads.......
