 Currently the Minimig is not expandable in ways that a 500 was, no CPU update, no RAM expansion, no Hard Drive, etc.

 Right now it is just a cool way to play those old demos and games on the TV, which I respect, but there is NO WAY I can afford to lay down $200 for a game system with limited RAM and limited CPU.

 For now I'll place my faith in AROS, E-UAE, MorphOS, and perhaps Amiga inc themselves.

I did forget to emphasise how utterly awsome and tempting it is! I just can't afford that pleasure atm. But as I say, maybe a few advancements like more ADF's, yes that is good, and I did forget the free Scandoubler...

...definatly something that will get better in time, even if the CPU and RAM never expand, it is cool as heck, and better than emulation...


...but you know, if it was expandable now, I'd be finding ways to make money for one! :)
