Its a yes and a no from me, I'm a fan of aros and of amiga emulation and I quite like the old idea of having the whole computer inside the keyboard. The thing for me is that it should be true to it self and aim it self at the retro market much like the atari flashback device or Blaze Mega drive system,

Both these system sell for less than £40, brilliant for retro fans and i think Clusteruk had the right idea to try and make a aros machine for less than £100 and now maybe see if they can get it on the Raspberry Pi for $25 would be really cool. Lets face it to run every amiga app you dont need a lot of power. Putting it all inside of a nice looking retro case would be really nice as long as it doest add too much to the cost, like a c64 replica at $400 to me is just a little too much too me.
