I agree with one of the previous posts. What use is a fantastic OS without killer apps? You don't just boot up your OS to fiddle with the icons and open and close windows - well not for very long anyway. For Amiga to succeed they will need to have some decent applications from the beginning, or at least in the very near future. It's unlikely that we'll get a port of Microsoft Office but we need something of that calibre, or better to make an impact.

I hope that doesn't sound too negative, but as yet I haven't heard any news about what end user software will be available for the A1, apart from the older software that will run under emulation.

The A1 will not succeed, even with a spanking new OS that runs rings around Windows or Max OSX, if it doesn't have a great suite of end user programs.
