Who's getting the Tabor?

I wanted one, but if the price I recently read of 400euro is correct then my interest has significantly dwindled.
Pretty much rhetorical, and voiced out of frustration, but why is it every man and his dog, unless the word "Amiga" is involved seem to be able to produce obscure, and cheap machines, even when in small runs?

Although seemingly contrary to a lot of peoples opinion, the non standard fpu is actually attractive to me. Makes the hardware a little different and interesting. No Amiga/AmigaOne hardware can come close to competing with mainstream hardware anyway, so at least the spes of Tabor make it interesting to see what you can squeeze from it. Having said that though, this is from the perspective of someone who can compile his own binaries.

If I wanted more typical hardware I would, and do use an x86 machine. From a pure "for fun" perspective Tabor is the most interesting OS4 hardware available for my tastes.

I just hope the quoted 400 euro is for a full system and not just the mobo. A Raspberry Pi, with Neon offers the same sort of fun for me as Tabors CPU, and I'm only willing to add a limited premium (still 10* or thereabouts mind you) to have that fun on AmigaOS.
