A suggestion for the new AmigaOne X1000

[dougal]

I think if the new Amiga is to be a succsess i would suggest that just like when the first A1000 came out back in 1985, the new Amiga must be GROUND BREAKING, not just a machine which can run OS4 etc...

They should design a games console, but more powerful than the Playstation3 or Xbox360 with better processing power, better graphics hardware etc...

From that they should turn it into a computer with expansion slots, built in wifi etc.. and have it packaged with a Amiga branded keyboard/mouse and the latest OS4.

With such powerfull hardware and maybe a good ad campaign they could get 3rd party support for games (such as from EA or Activision etc...)

Maybe in the future even release a smaller version (with no Xorro/PC slots etc..) and it would be a kind of moder A500 games machine yet still a computer at the same time.

I made that suggestion because i see it pointless spending so much money just to buy a system which ONLY has an OS to offer and nothing else. No apps, no games NOTHING! Well not nothing but not much.

It would be much more of a worthwhile system if it has a few killer apps and maybe at least just to start with one or two decent games which have some sort of name and not something unheard of.
