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.

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

It'll run any NES game totally awesome.

Nicholas would love that. You've made my night!
Thanks! I do really love you guys (in a completely hetrosexual way).
Now I've got to skip over a thread and take some abuse from Franko before I go to bed.

Take care,
Jim

At last heaven... :)

Can it play all me SNES RPG games (NTSC &PAL), can it emulate taking 15 minutes to load an old C64 game (loved waiting to see the "Load Error" message at the end... :)

Can I throw all me old Amiga accelerator cards in at once and not bother having to connect them (be handy that)... :)

Does it make a good cup of tea and do the washing at the same time... :)

Can squirrels use it (if supervised by a grown up)... :)

If so, where do I send the dosh (just printing it right now)... :)

(PS:I'll stick me own stickers on them cos I bought a load off ebay and was going to use them to sell genuine Commodore everything back on eeBlay bay again)... :)

Ta Very Glad... Your first customer... :D

PPS:What job title comes with this purchase... ???

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.
