Why CUSA's need to take Pre-Orders?

You couldn't have been more wrong. They have their own forums, where i'd imagine you'd get a better response.

Yeah it has been made painfully obvious that decent discussion is no longer appreciated at Amiga.org but I digress..

In answer to your original question, many if not most companies take pre-orders...   I am certain that if I had a DIME into a project of this magnitude I would take pre-orders as well...

If folks don't like the pre-ordering offer for whatever reason, then don't pre-order...

Out of curiosity, what makes a PC in a C64 case an interest to an amiga community, as opposed to a C64 one?
 
 
Im not actually trying to be snide here, I think its a cool idea, if overpriced for what you get.
But Im not sure there's much relevance other than "the company that made your computer also made this other computer, so here's a netbook power PC put into that case".
A PC in a spectrum case would be as relevant.
 
 
If I was in the market for something "retro amiga" that isnt my 1200, I'd go with Morph OS instead

As has been stated multiple times it is relevant if it resides in the part of the forum that addresses other operating systems or computer systems.  Pretty much anything is fair game in that location.  Once again if folks don't like it don't open the threads..

So why is Barry here and Dammy and Leo and WolfToTheMoon pushing this stuff if Barry has stated that we are not his target market... :confused:

Simple reason is, he's just here to try and piss us all off... :furious:

Actually no Franko, pissing people off is your only mission in life...
