Interview with A-Eon's Trevor Dickinson

[spirantho]

I am still surprised that there is still enough need for two high-prize machines after the X1000 is already sold to interested people. But he can do with his money what he wants to do.

I think there's a fair few people who don't have the money now but will have after saving up for a year or two - so it's not unreasonable.
Then you factor in the X1000 owners who want to upgrade to the latest model - remember the X1000 will always be worth a pretty penny, so upgrade costs wouldn't be as bad as you might imagine.

I think it's good that we will have a fairly regular supply of top-end, middle and low-end Amiga machines - can't go far wrong with that!

[spirantho]

I don't understand why he won't say how many units they sold...

What is his a secret agent and no one can know how many they sold?

Its a valid question...

Kind of ridiculous.

It's perfectly normal not to give that kind of information out.

How many Pegasos and Pegasos 2s were sold, incidentally?
For that matter, exactly how many Amiga 1200s were sold?

[spirantho]

People often think that "investing" money in my A4000 isn't sensible either.
Never stopped me, though
