The Best Things Come In Small Packages

OK, so you get a 4 core high-end i7 CPU. You put 16GB of fast RAM in it. You put USB3 in it. You give it all the bells and whistles you can....

... and you stick a GT 430 (a low-end budget card) in it? Seriously? With no way of expanding it because the case is too small for any slots?

Is it any good for gaming? No, the graphics are way below spec. Is it any good for serious use? Maybe, but who's going to want to spend that kind of money on a machine with zero internal expansion possibilities.

I'm filing this under "What were they thinking??".

(and am I the only one who finds the case looks like a Mac Mini put through an "Ugly filter"?)

You're forgetting the CUSA tax. There's no way CUSA will let you make computers under the Commodore name without your giving him a hefty chunk of your profit. To cope with that chunk, you'll have to put your prices up so high that you wouldn't be able to compete.
CUSA seem to think that people will buy a PC at a higher price because it has the name "Amiga"... or are they just trying to convince the "resellers" of that?

If you go near this scheme, you WILL lose money, it's as simple as that.
