If Bill and company had just tried to re-start the production lines for the 4000 and 1200 they would have money in the bank now instead of 2.2 million in the hole.

Who would want to buy seriousely outdated hardware? Only a few Amiga enthusiasts would... And also, no one produces the custom chipset/cpu that is used in classic amigas anymore, so where can amiga get the chips? Its just not possible, its way to late to do anything with the classic line of amiga.

I believe though that the AmigaDE should have been dumped, they should rather have concentrated only on ppc hardware/amigaOS port..

but yeah, they did try to leap to far...
