My guess is TheDaddy has a much better chance of a return on his investment than the CUSA clownshow. More importantly, it's obvious he has the support of the community.

If I had any use for a desktop machine, I'd definitely be in for one of these cases.

And look at what Commodore did during just the last few years, you may not like them, but you are a *fool* if you try to deny them the fact that they *did* get the rights to use the Commodore brand, they *did* get the rights to use the Amiga brand. They *did* put the C64x to the market!


No, that did happen.  It just wasn't particularly impressive for the amount of noise that was made.

The noisemakers (read: *SPAMMERS*) comes down to some 5 people, and CUSA aren't one of them.


Take a look down at your keyboard.  See how the keys are looking all shiny and worn?  That's a sign you may have tl;dritis.  It is not known yet whether or not this disease is terminal, but a new keyboard can help mask the symptoms.

As the use of the trademarks is all CUSA really has (had?) they figured they'd play the big men and show off with their posturing as the rightful owners.  Carrion birds.

Sell a floppy disk or CD with some little "hello world" program and use the case as packaging.

Amiga is a strong, cutting edge technology and brand


Not since the late 80s/early 90s.

its rightful owners won't be able to make a living out of it, much less bring it back to its rightful position as market leader.


If the rightful owners were trying to make a living out of it, they sure could've fooled me.
