Maybe thats why people hate them alot, with little or no actual development effort their offerings far outperform anything AOS has to offer.


The reason people hate them is because they don't have any offerings. They just take the credit for other people's work and drag the name of those people through the mud and give them a bad reputation.

They can outperform my Amigas as much as they like, I still get more enjoyment just from turning my Amiga on than their PC will ever give me.
Even in the 90s, the PC far outperformed the Amigas we were using, but it's not performance that matters, is it?

The seem to be doing okay well good on them if they do nothing wrong with that
I like the look the mini and like idea of computer and keyboard combined like the 1200
yes i know there pcs but hell least bit diffrent to what everone esle is floging these days

I whouldint mind buying something from them mind you i rather buy x 1000 or lap top first


Why do you think they're doing ok? I'd say the quite the opposite, actually; they don't seem to be shipping anything at all! The forums are dead, many of the customers are dissatisfied and the "products" are just rebadged products from other companies. They can't be different to what other companies are flogging for the simple reason that they are what other companies are flogging, if you see what I mean. The "mini" is a case made by another company and readily available for about $80 I believe. The AIO machines are also rebadged Chinese makers' machines.

Why would anyone buy from them when you can get identical systems for a quarter the price?
