I dunno.  How bad would it be to have a little spare cash, about US$600, to plop on modern hardware instead of old hardware of questionable reliability, then run Amiga Forever or AmiThlon, or AROS, or what have you, if that's what you want to do?

I can see loading this thing up with all sorts of emulators: Amiga, C64/128/etc (VICE,) TI-99/4A, Atari ST, Genesis, and so on.  The specs would seem to easily support that.

Yeah, it is interesting how many people out there truly believe that the Amiga is just a hair-trigger away from taking over the world.  Makes me wanna cry: that there are people who still believe that, and that it will never happen ;-)

This could be thought of as just another GP32X, but more powerful, bigger screen, with a cool retro logo on it.


Or with something like AROS, this could be a neat little AmigaOS laptop computer, versus the hand-held PSP-type machine of the GP32X.  I can see the appeal.
