Quote from: Amiga_Nut;565679
Because not many people seem impressed regardless of price. So what is it people would really want from a new machine bearing the Amiga logo on it?

1 Do you wan't the equivalent of the A1000 ie pricey but technically light years ahead of everything else for the price of a top end Mac/PC octa-core CPUd desktop? A machine so powerful that you could write games in BASIC/C that exceed PS3/360 games technically but will cost a lot.

or

2 would you just like something that fills the role the A500 did, ie play the same sort of games due to similar technical abilities as the most advanced consoles on sale at the time?



Any new advanced Amiga hardware has to keep in lock step with an Operating System. If new advanced Amiga hardware is being developed along with new versions of the AmigaOS (4.X) then I would be in. I would buy one. If we are talking about developing new advanced Amiga hardware with no tie in with new versions of an AmigaOS then the project will be DOA. Developers need both new hardware and new OS features to develop to.
