Oh no. Please, please, please do not let "Amiga" become the Harley Davidson of the computing world.


Why not? It seems to me that the HD business model (while not likely to happen) would be a good thing for the Amiga. I'd be happy to buy some less costly clones of equal or better quality. Plus there would be an explosion of OEM and after market "chrome plated" accessories. Who wouldn't want to hear the "Clickity-clack" of a nice chromed floppy drive?

The biggest downside that I can see would be the blow dealt to those of us who enjoy broadcasting our propaganda anytime anything threatens the obscurity of the Amiga platform and community. (As if that's even possible...)
