I´ve heard that some old commodore man is importing them (or helped in doing so) back from India. Some 10 k units vere sold in that direction, and a lot of them vere never unpacked. So some shops still have "brand new" A1200 for sale.

Maybe someone was telling me fairytales.

10K sounds like Fairy Tales to me. 2K maybe...

If it's the same sale I was told about it could be the last batch of Amigas ever sold, 15K in total to India.

I´m sure about the high number (even higher I hear). I guess it was Petro Tyschtschenko that helped Gunter at KDH among others to import some of them back from India.

I can even go to a shop (pc1.no) down town and buy a new (as in never unpacked) A1200 (he even mentioned "new" A500´s, but that story is not backed by anyone else).

Any chance you can change the title to
"Are classic Amigas still being produced?" please?
