:-( It's sad, really. I hope all the best for Merlancia; stainless steel 'miggy laptops sound so cool.
-But not at the quoted prices. And there is no easy way out of their situation, either. Mass production will drive the cost down, but to produce enough units to drive the price low enough that your average use could afford one would require a market larger than currently exists. This is why Eyetech aren't (currently) producing laptop Amigas.
:-( Maybe once the market picks up it will be practical, but I think that's a few years down the road, at minimum.
;-) Hopefully, Merlancia's expenses are as minimal as their current revenue. Web pages cost almost nothing to host and maintain. A single optimist's spare time is enough.
