AmigaOne is a cash-in on a very dated trend.  PSOne is obsolete.  MediaOne is gone.  You're either a leader or a follower.

At least they didn't call it the iMiga.

They should call it something new every time they redesign the mainboard.  I still cringe whenever I hear people try to describe the PowerMac G3 towers, and they have to call them either "Beige" or "Blue and White".  Sure, let's have a whole lineup of computers, over a couple years, all called the same thing.  I feel the same way about AmigaOne and AmigaOne XE.

I also think the whole OS should have been renamed to Workbench.  AmigaOS just sounds so...  difficult.
