Well that is because it is the top of the line Amiga model, and upgraded with the fastest 68000 series CPU accelerator. Naturally this setup will cost more than a Amiga 500 system. Does that make sense?
Well, to a degree I hear what you are saying, but if it was just about power, it would seem that it would not be a reasonable price to pay, given that for 800 bucks you could get a pretty tweaked PC that would outstrip in every way this Amiga.
If there are collectors who want to have these because they collect Amigas and this is one, then I certainly understand that.
Another reason for high prices on this kind of equipment would be rarity. Have most Amigas gone into the dump? If so maybe that explains the cost. These systems are expensive because there is high demand and very low supply.
I was just trying to get a feel for it. I see auctions on Ebay for older Amigas going for a lot less than 800 so that's another reason why I was questioning this.
