As with the original Amiga, the price of the operating system is embedded into the package. Consider that before you state it is overpriced.


ITS OVERPRICED, which part do you not understand.  Unless you believe that OS4, is a $300 OS, then its overpriced, and even then its really overpriced.  MacMini with OSX and lots of bundled software goes for $499, its faster, its more powerful, it has more features, it'll edit High Definition Video for gods sake.  Plug in you monitor, keyboard and mouse and go.  For $499, Dell will sell me a laptop that runs WinUAE faster then an A1, again AmigaOne is overpriced, its not currently available and Hyperion says the OS to run on it isnt done yet.

and how many thousands of dells and macs are produced at a single production run? without a large production run the cost is high. eyetech could not produce a high enough quantity to allow a lower price. as for genesi they can skirt around that issue with bplan(since they are a manufacturer) eyetech has to pay someone else to produce for them.
The only stupid question is a question not asked.  


Win•dows: n. A thirty-two bit extension and graphical shell to a sixteen-bit patch to an eight-bit operating system originally coded for a four-bit microprocessor which was written by a two-bit company that can\'t stand one bit of competition.
