 I`m with you on that one Kenny, I`m just waiting to see the price of the MicroA1 (or whatever it`s called!),cos there`s no way in hell I`m paying the current asking price of the AmigaOne, no matter how good OS4 turns out. If it`s anymore than £250 then I won`t bother, it`ll either be a PegII or a Mac for me.

 It`s not just me,the other day a "PC mad" mate saw the news of the OS4 sale on slashdot, he read it and followed up a few links to try and find out what was so good about it and why I`m still "an amiga nutcase" (his words!).
 He said he was almost interested until he saw the price, then when he found out that price was just motherboard&CPU he just laughed.
 If other non-amiga users are like this, how is the market supposed to grow?

Um, they began selling the MicroA1 awhile back, it came in more expensive than the A1 IIRC.


 Yeah, but that was just a small production run for (developers and testing etc), so that`ll push the price up until they do it for real.
