Ainc are "extremely insane".
Brief history lesson;
There -was- an opportunity lift the brands profile, put it all over a bunch of hardware gadgets, MP3 players, phones, Amiga-in-a-joystick, games compilations ect and create a new desktop OS alternative.
Over the last 5+ years Ainc have repeatedly failed to capitalise on the brand. Here's one example;
The OS was available in beta on extremely expensive PPC based hardware; (anyone want a buggy AUD$1000+ motherboard?), now the OS is finally out of beta, the hardware has dried up, so there's nothing to run it on.
Do you see the problem?
Most people are now content with classic hardware and/or emulation.
