How would you have designed AGA Amigas?

I'd have got rid of the PCMCIA port. It was an expensive (though almost out of date) laptop part.

PCMCIA almost out of date in 1992?  That's only slightly ridiculous, considering you can still find new PCMCIA cards today (sure, most are CardBus by this point.)  I bet 600/1200 users everywhere appreciate the low cost to get their machines on the network and ease of data transfer via PCMCIA/CF adapters.

Clone the 68K archetecture. MOS tech is right there, so use it guys. motorola aren't doing anything special.

...

behold, a non bankrupt commodore.

Actually, that one step would've been a bad idea and might have ruined them, as MOS learned earlier after being sued by Motorola for making a CPU pin-compatible (not even a clone!) with the 6800.

So then it wasn't out of date, it was ahead of its time!
