Oh well, either they have taken a leaf out of Apple's ridiculous pricing or this is a scam involving their inevitable bankruptcy lol. Do they regularly enact the mad hatter's tea party at corporate lunch???
They can quote the 1985 launch of the A1000 as much as they like but the truth is at the launch of the A1000 Apple cost 200% more and didn't even have colour. A useless pile of junk with a stolen [from Xerox IP] OS. And DOS...CGA doorstops only useful as chocs to park up passenger jets in my opinion again costing much more. In fact the only competition Amiga ever had was the 1985 ST with a price 40% lower and some of the features. And to top it all off A1000 did things no other computer money could buy, like play Fairlight sound samples or do 25FPS colour animations or even display 4000+ colours in 50% broadcast quality in a world where 16 on screen @ 320x200 was considered high end, and all in a beautiful multitasking kernal under a GUI.
Truth is x1000 is costing more than anything else and it doesn't have an advantage, no CPU advantage or GPU advantage or anything different that the OS has as a unique point. It's an also ran priced at the cost of TWO home built i7 super computers.
Such a shame as there really are alternatives that could work that require minimal re-coding of OS4 at 1/2 the price of top end Macs/PCs.....this isn't one of those technical solutions
