I have always thought that the Minimig was targeted at people who once had an Amiga (possibly an A500/600) and wanted to play classic games,
For me it was to have a great retro-games machine. Those few AGA games will run on my A4000, but the Minimig is my main games computer. The ability to use nice quality keyboard and mice along with the fact that I can keep both joysticks plugged in with no buggering around depending on what port is needed or whether it is a joystick or mouse controlled game. Also, not having a stack of corrupt floppy disks covering my desk is a real bonus (cue Alex's post for WHDload). Did I mention the ability to connect to VGA inputs?
Plus, it weighs a hell of a lot less than a real Amiga. :-)
