What an Amiga is is NOT a matter of opinion.
no matter what anyone thinks an A1200 is............an A1200 is still an A1200 with whatever specs it has.
An Amiga is definitely a Machine with custom chips...........this is where everyone's head gets confused by the word: Custom Chips. No one is talking Fat Agnus, Denise and Paula here........those are obviously outdated...........A modern Amiga (A REAL Amiga) would be a Machine with NEW modern Custom Chips, capable of excellent gaming better than X-Box 360 and PS3, yet a full blown computer.... it's that simple. Picture a PS3 but with a Keyboard and Workbench 3.9 or OS4 if you will. PS3 is the closest thing on this planet to a REAL Amiga that is left.
AmigaONES are NOT Amigas. They are PPC clones. While a New Amiga can contain PPC chips.......it will only truly be an Amiga if it had Custom chips, and was unique and was manufactured inhouse by Amiga Inc themselves.
if Amiga Inc allows other Amiga Clones to be made, well then those would be real Amigas too, but just Clones of Amigas. I am fine with that. Just as Panasonic made Nintento Game Cubes, this would be the same idea here.
