So why don't you manufacture a new system from scratch that will run AmigaOS4.x for a better price ? And then provide great customer support and i'll bet you'll come to the conclusion that ACube are Amiga fans first and foremost and hopefully a little profit is gained to support the next model :-)
But then again it's easier to criticize from your arm chair eh
new system??.... Sam440ep Flex is old it was first released in 2008 for the os4... its standard was then of the 1998. today it is 2012 and in a few months we hit 2013. things move forward, people are already struggling with slow system. because 660mhz isn't enough for the os4. so they could just drop the 660mhz model, and just sell the 730mhz as minimum system for only €170... in 1 year or so this system will be useless for the internet, it will be like trying to get your old 1995 pc/mac on the internet with windows 1995/os9.
Sam440ep Flex is like an appetizer, before the big dinner. in this case the big dinner is the X1000... if money is short, just save up your money for the X1000. in 2013 it will get a price drop too, that i am sure about.
