Amiga Model 10 Notebook
« on: February 27, 2009, 08:01:06 PM »
Was perusing an old copy of amigaworld magazine (circa 1992) and noticed a tiny advertisement in the back for an amiga compatible (not made by commodore) notebook computer.  It was a drawing, not a picture.  And it looked like a normal notebook from the time.  It claimed to have a black and white display.  It was "Model 10".  Has anyone seen one of these or have pictures?

Has it mentioned as being designed by Newer Technologies but Commodore refusing to let them licence the chips after NewerTech refused to licence the form factor/mobo.

Short sighted by both companies it seems.

That was them.  No wonder there aren't any around.
