To reply the message that started this thread;

I'm a classic amiga user. I am because it is fun to tinker with the machines. I do not think it is competative or better than any modern platform it might be comparable with. I do think it is a gem for it's time. And I will never concider A1 or Pegasus because I feel that those are too far from the classic amiga.

I don't want to insult any of you but that is just my feeling. A true (classic) amiga is a system based around a 68k cpu and a custom chipset. The system is/was intended for the masses. Not any ppc based platform using COTS components with the amiga name slapped on it whishing to be for the masses.

I really hope for the sake of those working on it you will gain ground. But I won't be any help due to lack of interest.

So short answer is; I will not consider it.

Hope this is not sounding like a post trying to plug pegasus or A1 (whatever that means). If it is I apologize and should not have posted it.
Regards,
Erno
