I want to know if now it's a good period to buy AmigaOne.


The decision is absolutely emotional. No one wants an a Linux box so expensive and troublesome. (With troublesome I mean it's PowerPC, which has worse support than X86 Linux) Still no one knows how good/bad OS4 will be.

So those who already bought an AmigaONE did that purely based on emotions - yet, I don't want to underestimate the power of emotions. They keep our life in movement.

So put your hand on your heart and say out loud: do you want it or not?

If it is what you've dreamed of, and have the money I say, go for it. If you want to be rational, then the answer is "not" or "not now", and buy something else or wait how this will turn out in the end.

Whatever your decision will be: You will not be disappointed. It's almost impossibble psychology wise. :-)

Note that who already bought AmigaONE say "go for it!", those who haven't or have chosen another way say "wait till it arrives and you can see". So in the end, it's up to you. :-)

i really dont have any clue why i bought it back then when i knew os4 wouldnt be out yet but i dont regret buying it as now i have the hw atleast ...  1 less thing to think about :)


Waiting for the Peg2 or OS4, or whatever promised here lately to come... Is like preordering the 3rd part of "The Matrix" without seeing it. Will it be as stunning as the first one? Will it be so crap as the 2nd? No one knows, but everyone has very strong hopes/feelings/clairvoyance about what it will be like :-)

(sorry for bringing Matrix into the thread :-))

It's not only about taking the red or blue pill. It's something like predicting the future, and making the best guess in advance. Not an easy task :-)
