Re: SAM 440 - What would owning one mean to you?

I will wait for the Natami project to end up hopefully with success... I don't trust on systems that rely on emulation to handle classic software... I can do that using WinUAE.

So under my point of view nor Efika neither SAM are amigas anymore, specially since OS4 is capable of "almost" boot on a Mac... Or finally efectivelly boot.

It's like the new intel Mac's and the Leopard... Leopard can boot on a PC with some hacking. So these machines are not Mac anymore.

And yep, they have some new and nice pieces of software, but i would not spend so much money on a SAM440 when you can get a PC much more powerful for the same price, and use WinUAE faster than the Amiga emulation is on the SAM440...

In any case, i would go for an Efika, it's a fraction of SAM's price, and specs are not far behind the Acube board at the end.

Cheers.
