Really ? Relying on the community makes the500 mini better  :o ?

I have both of them and since I got the A600GS the Mini is gathering dust and is barely used ! Together with Pandory the500 mini is nothing more than a Raspberry Pi 3.5 if such thing would exist, every Pi4/400/5/500 can do things better (and even cheaper). The A600GS is unique, it comes with DB9 support OOTB, it has AmiBench (based on AROS) with already a great 68k compatability (for AROS this is) and you also get the benefit of new software not found elsewhere bundled with it like OctaMED 8 or the new Final Writer ... you can play WHD/HDF/ISO/ADF OOTB without using third party mods and if you have a problem/bug it will be adressed. I just got around using my old Amiga Disks with the Greaseweazle support and hey, you got networking support on the fly without any hassle AND without sourcing for a decent USB LAN Hub ;D
On top you get BT support and as the A600GS uses DDR4 ram it has a better performance on Amiberry than "the other one" ...

Don“t get me wrong, I think RGL got many things right with the500 mini, but this battle is lost for them 8)
