Frankly if it was 5000 dollars, some of you will pay. Some people are stupid enough to spend 60k dollars on a pair of speakers.

<2000 quid is a snip.

Shall I trade in my Capri :)


Absolutely not!

That's crazy..  Unless...

Did they use Monster Cables?  Those are worth the $2000 right there!!!
Monster Cables for my X1000!!   Yeay!!!
:roflmao:

Ok, that's too much for me, but I'm not the target audience...

Also, I doubt it's worse for Piru than he initially thought..  ;-)

But I do agree..  There are people who spend well over a thousand USD on a decked out SAM Amiga system, so I'd think they might be interested in this at twice the price.  It wasn't that long ago that people routinely spent that much on a computer.

And, this is also aimed at the "early adopter" market.  Those people will pay almost anything..  :hammer:

However, to be successful, you need enough of these "early adopters" so a second run might be cost effective.  With the competition on the low end (real old Amigas and minimigs, etc), I don't see them competing there.
OR..  You need enough of these early adopters/hardcore fans with disposable income and you keep the price high...

I don't see either happening..
Then again, I didn't think people would pay for shareware in the stores and know someone who made a lot of money doing that..  So, who knows..

who is the target audience?
