What a bunch of crap!  Why does this idiot get all this free exposure on the site anyway? It makes me sick.

I really have to wonder if people are reading the same interview I was reading.
Commodore USA is currently a small company, with limited resources, and with limits to Amiga IP usage. We are doing the best, with the IP we have available to us, as we possibly can.
It's all fine to sit there and say, oh, ......

If CUSA was developing ANYTHING  this would be a different story. You are doing exactly the same thing IBUYPOWER is doing: assembling Intel/AMD  type computers -   but charging three to four times as much. I should add that IBUYPOWER is honest about assembling their computers from other firms parts, and doesn't charge much for their computers.
The only real difference I see, is that CUSA is dragging the Amiga name through the mud.
It's a shame, but Barry doesn't have a clue what the Amiga computer was about. The original Amiga was an innovative NEW machine for truly creative people. CUSA's abomination is nothing new. It's just another PC assembled from other manufacturers parts. No innovation, nothing new and, nothing remotely Amiga like about them.

Feel free to stop posting in C=USA threads then if you find it so uninteresting.

You mean CUSA hasn't folded yet?!

Personally I don't see the Amiga Mini selling well. Why you ask?


1. No way to run AmigaOS or classic software included.

2. Looks nothing like any Amiga new or old, nostalgia factor lost.

3. Might have power supply issues.

4. GPU is too slow.

5. No value add, everything included is off the shelf parts and a free Linux OS.

6. Very high price.

7. Lack of community interest.

Going to try and have a long talk with Transition this weekend on why CommodoreUSA gets so much coverage here. Personally I think OS4, MorphOS, X1000 & AROS should be covered more. Leave Amiga Mini for Amigans.net.

:)

Excellent idea! It would be great to Amiga.org turn back into a serious Amiga forum (although I do hope people do NOT loose their sense of humor). It's a shame this site has lost it's credibility to such an extent.
