I think alot of people's problem with them is simply that their lies bullshit and hype far outweigh their reality. If they said nothing and just produced this it would probably have been much more warmly recieved. Instead, we get over a year and a half of lies, bullshit, stolen graphics, stolen website from apple, existing computers with a commodore sticker slapped on, all kinds of bullshit announcements, fanboys invading amiga.org and other sites but claiming amiga fans aren't their market... Their ceo threatening to sue osnews for stating facts in his acticle, then he went on to alienating aros users, insulting os4 and morphos, and more.
I'd love to see their sales figures. And what about the tens of thousands of units going to big box retail or was that all bullshit too?
If they broke 1000 in sales on these that would be remarkable. I just don't see anyone other than huge c64 fans wanting one. C64 was a remarkable machine, but does anyone REALLY want to work on that keyboard now?
Could you imagine having to type long papers or letters on that? EEEW.
And another thing, getting custom cases and keyboards made is very expensive. Even with their TREMENDOUS markup for the electronic components they used, they are probably barely making any money selling these.
CUSA? Its a guy with too much money pretending to be the next Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, and he's doing a really bad job of it. Business is about making money, not losing it.
