bhogget: yes i know, but you know he did actually want a special HW....now its maybe possible...
Possible, maybe, but is it desirable?
anyway i wait for an official statement on his plans and what he will do before commenting any further , but for now i think its a wise choise..
Well, I think he's being brought in to do the same job Gateway had him doing: PR. Nothing more.
Wake up amiga again...and let it be amiga again not an EMU and not an DE thingy....
I somehow doubt the market has room for a completely different custom platform any more. Things have moved on, and the likelihood of any company, specially one as cash-strapped as Amiga, ever developing a killer machine from the ground up is less than remote.
but then again if they have money for it, they can do both....
Even if he puts his entire personal fortune into it, I doubt they would have the money for such a strategy.
Remember, Collas never delivered anything. He was liked by everyone because he had great charisma and talked everything up big. The only Amiga related thing he ever achieved was a mock-up in a glass case.
There is little doubt Amiga Inc. need a big improvement in their PR, but what they really need is some honest to goodness
doers, not yet another
talker.
