Way to sell an Amiga

[ElPolloDiabl]

Easy way:

1. Have the product ready for Christmas
2. Market it as the latest family entertainment gadget
3. Profit

Hard way:
1. Have the product constantly delayed and accompanied with competing vapourware products.
2. Fail to even have a full featured web browser. Ignore what the market is asking for. Be generally mediocre in opposition to the old era of being a budget high end system.
3. Don't profit and then blame... software piracy, a recession, chicken or the egg.

Okay its a little simplistic, but feel free to expand. It could also apply to any company that treats a market with passing interest and just assumes people will continue to swallow whatever they're given.

How many Amiga products have you produced and sold to the public?
Name all of them.  Include both hardware and software.  Don't be shy.

How many non-Amiga electronic products have you produced and sold to the public?

Firstly this is not a personal attack, it is more of a discussion of how things are in life - in general.

Let's take the Dreamcast as an example: It took off fast out of the gates with a pre-Christmas launch, then next year was on the way out.
There was a poster just recently asking for info on what Android Tablet to buy his nephew for Christmas.
I think people will buy risky at Christmas time instead of being rather being indifferent to a purchase.
Answer to the question: None, but I think I know the electronics market inside and out. I have a good idea what is hot and what is not, although there will be others who are closer to all the latest gossip than me.
