Well... actually many times a week personal ads appear on Dutch second hand market place (marktplaats.nl (http://www.marktplaats.nl)) selling Amiga 1250s (http://www.stokhof.nl/occasions/occ_amica1250wit.htm).








I must admit that people than have misspelled the product but.... this isn't meant to be a too serious comment.

Ah yes, the AmiCar.  A bunch of owner-donated parts sitting in disparate heaps on the ground, while two scrap dealers have a fistfight over who owns said piles, and the five people still interested in it are jumping up and down and shouting about how the car will drive faster than the speed of light and everyone will want one once someone just opens a multi-billion dollar factory to produce it.

Well sounds like apple is trying to be the next MicroSoft now, getting into every market and trying to take it over.  So if i dont have an Iphone or a Ipod would i be able to use an Icar or do i have to sign up for ATT crappy network to activate it.  Apple should just stick with electronics, people are going to get sick of the I this and I that crap.  Hey there we go, a toilet that plays MP3's, makes phone calls and will take all the crap you give it   ...  The I-Toilet... yes i have reinvented the crapper... :-D  :-D  :-D
