You do make some good points (hardware-banging software etc.), but it's a shame you have to bring this "new Amiga" stuff into every conversation, even when the topic most clearly is talking about the X1000. It seems like you take every opportunity to blow your C-USA trumpet in the faces of people who are actually aware of the facts, of the shortcomings of AmigaOS machines, but still want to use them for their hobby.
This. Endlessly repeating phrases like "the new Amigas are x86 based" doesn't actually make you righter on what makes an Amiga than MorphOS zealots, OS4 obsessives, AROS nuts, or 68k diehards. (And neither does licensing a trademark, thank you.)
