Hi team

You want to know what could drive AmigaOid sales:

Here:
Poweroid 1204 silent PC
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/71/36437.html

There is a real market for "affordable" computers that don't sound like a Jet Engine.

The AmigaOid OS's are very nearly usable (Open office and Mozilla would be a huge help here) and if "Joe Public" could have a computer that did what they required without warming their house or waking there neighbours.... They will be interested.

Lets look at what AmigaOids do well:

1. Boot REALLY REALLY fast.
2. Have the potential to be really silent.

Lets build on our strengths.

Darren

Hello

Can anybody hear me??? I'm starting to wonder...

Rather than trying to invent something new, why don't we capitalise on what we do well already.

1. Easy to use.
2. Fast to start and stop (more time doing and less time waiting).
3. Silent (could be completely silent if we tried harder).
4. Cool (in terms of "thermal"), PPC CPU's run cooler anyway but besides that we do not need to push the MHz barriers to get work done.

Come on guys and girls.... Lets stop complaining about what we don't/cant have and start thinking harder about what we have/do well already.

Is there really anything else out there that starts quickly, runs quietly and is easy to use???

Regards
Darren
