Hi,
I think its a great idea in principle, but there are so many insurmountable barriers...
Also, don't forget that, rightly or wrongly, much of the Amiga's success was down to all the games available. Sure it was a great MM machine, but it was the games that shifted all those A500s

When I think of a cool system, with great built in gfx and sound, that can be connected to a TV, is reasonably cheap and has lots and lots of good games to help it sell, I think of one thing....PS2 - Oh, I almost forgot, AND the case looks cool (IMO)

Now if it was some kind of custom solution (maybe a kit? Amiga users tend to be technologically savvy copmared to most computer users) that involved taking the innards
out of the PS2, with an Amiga keyboard, an OS that booted off CD and could be installed to HD etc.
(AFAIK its already possible to run linux on a PS2, why not UAE?)

Now this is a project I would definitely devote time and maybe even money to.....
Or, I could just buy a PS2 and get UAE running on it....  :-)



Anyway, it is a nice idea, and I don't think people are being constructive by completely slagging it off, but I do agree that you have to face up to some hard facts.

Like I have already said, I support the sentiment 100%

What about all the people who will sit on the sidelines and, just for fun, just say "It'll fail, It'll fail!" These people are common, especially in the UK where I am from, where people seem to LOVE to see others fail.

What about all the trolls, all the self-destructive back-biting that has torn the community apart. They'd love to jump on any idea you might put forward and kill that too...
 
Like I said, I like the idea in principle!
