It's not so easy for everyone to cough up 800-900$ for a new system that doesn't yet replace my PC I got to have at home.

So anybody feel the same ?

I hear ya, brutha! As it just so happens, I am looking to buy a new computer soon, two actually. One will be a new Mac Mini for about $800, which for the price completely blows the SAM400 out of the water in terms of speed and functionality. For Amiga nostalgia there's UAE, or I can spend $15 at the local flea market and pick up the real item.

But hey - If you blew $1400 five years ago on an A1, then this is a good chance to show your dedication again, lol!

I know, and I think it was a mistake to stick with PowerPC in the first place. Of course, what's to prevent them from porting the operating environment to an existing kernel on another platform?

Just think about who created the ExecNG kernel, and that answers this question.
