Hi Gerymatters and welcome to Amiga.org.
If you don't mind me asking, what made you think that the VIC-Slim was an Amiga (which it isn't) or that it was anything other than a standard PC running Linux?
The reason I ask is that we've already been saying for months how confusing and underhanded C-USA's advertising is (They call Linux Mint "COS" or "CommodoreOS") and they're just rebadging existing PCs, slapping on a sticker and doubling or trippling (or even quadrupling) the price. Did someone from C-USA or one of their boards tell you that these products would suit your needs, or did you just find their (lack of) product description as confusing and vague as we do?
One the plus side, I hope this rekindles your interest in the Classic Amiga.
