What will the X1000/X5000 offer the average hobbyist?
As I have mentioned before... Trevor gets a F- for economics. He built a machine for his own pride and joy whilst neglecting the basic principles of economics.
At least Commodore made sure that their products were affordable. Surely it would have been nice if every A1200/A600 sold had included a HD floppy drive, CD-ROM, hard drive, Ethernet and loads of RAM but the price would have been excessive and out of the reach of most users.
My advice is instead of producing another unaffordable model look at ways to deliver an affordable CR version at a price that would attract users to the OS4 platform.
