From the Port Commodore CommVEx site:

The Sam440 Flex and the Sam460 are modern hardware emulations of popular Amiga 68xxx machines.


You sure this Lars fellow even knows what it is he's going to be exhibiting?

And why would these machines be at a Commodore show in the first place, they have absolutely not a single thing to do with Commodore.

Perhaps you've noticed that as the years go by, shows in general carry more h/w in -general-. This is due to declining totals in patrons that would be attracted to just one platform. Surely you know this.

I went to a local MOPAR show a couple of years ago. Attendance was down at the time but nobody was showing their Hondas.

Anyhow, I'm more interested in hearing the justification of why a SAM is referred to as hardware emulation of a 68K Amiga. Is this a mistake, or a deliberate misrepresentation?
