There is not a single Amiga saviour. OR two. Or three. Since this hobby is not to be worshipped (as we've all been told before), lets not mince words.
Most people in possession of Amiga gear (ex dealers, ex hobbyists, ex video production users, ex Amiga zealots, etc)., are simply NOT going to be throwing their old hardware in the landfill. Amiga hardware WILL continue to find its way to Amiga enthusiasts from here 'til eternity. Ex-Amiga enthusiasts and users are fully aware of ePay, Craigslist, Amibay, Amigaworld, Amiga.org, etc. We REMEMBER what we paid for this stuff in the first place. Most of us bought it for more than we could have paid for a comparable PeeCee or Mac item - relatively speaking, FOR A REASON.
The absolute worse that can happen here is that prices for obsolete Amiga hardware comes back down to earth. GREED is what got Commodore where they are today.
I don't go to an estate sale, see a price for a Model A and tell them that their price is too low. Who in the Mac and PeeCee community are buying 15+ year old computer equipment at these prices?? (laughing out loud does not even begin to describe my feelings here)
WHO?
And why would they? And why would they not??
-snip- the ramblings of a tired and decrepit old Amiga user already. lol
