...Many of whom are not interested in the X5000. For them Amiga means 68k+OCS/ECS/AGA. They simply aren't a market.


Well 68K. yes, I am rather fond of that.
The old graphics chips? Nah, they weren't that fast when new.
Similar thing with Paula, frankly I'd rather have dual SID chips.

Since the 68K can be emulated by JIT translation, I'm fine with new hardware.

In fact, its been months since I have fired up legacy hardware.

As to the 500 X5000s originally planned for, if there is market demand more can be produced.

The question is, where do they think they are going to find 1000 people that want Tabor?
