If it were up to me I would insert twice the resolution capability of 1080p...............sure it will bring up the price...............but you will only have to buy 1 Amiga for the next 12 years...............how many times do PC and mac users buy new machines? like every 3 years or so I estimate...probably less! so they spend more money that it would cost us to shell out for an expensive Amiga.
Amiga users wont buy new machines because there is nothing to buy
Do you really think that Amiga 1200 or Amiga 4000 from 1994 was still usable for anykind of productive work without buying any über expensive accelerator boards or gfx boards? Tower systems, memory expansions, new harddisks...
It would be cool if people making such claims were actually using 12 years old Amigas in its original condition. No expansions, just vanilla Amiga 1200

Nobody is talking about ading 1080p to an A1200, I am talking about a Brand new made from Scratch NexGen Amiga....absolutely all new chips...a 1200-3 if you will.
By the way.....I recently worked at a club as a VJ flipping and crunching Visuals inrealtime at will with a CD32/SX32 030 and the club also had a Mac based VJ and PC based VJ...................the guys at the club said my visuals were way better.....I ran them at 720x240 and 720x480...............the other guys at 320x240................pretty Sad that a Pentium4 and PPC G4 and G5's couldnt do better. There was slow down if they tried anything higher :-).
I still use my A1200 professionally in this way....New Years party comin up............Guess what will be running the Visuals? ;-)
