Genesi to make a 'proper' computer...

[Framiga]

ohhh! out the guilty! who stoled "remember"?

@ Framiga

hey "stoled" doesn't exists in english! come back to school!

[TheMagicM]

if it doesnt run MOS or AOS, not many in the Amiga world will care.

@Everblue,

"Let's begin with speculation"

Let's NOT PLEASE!!!

When it is available for sale, has already been shown and tested and reviewed by an Amiga user, runs either AmigaOS, or MorphOS, can demonstrate some kind of advantage over the options that are already commercially currently available, then I MAY show some interest in such a computer product.

MiniMIG is far more interesting and it is real and here now.  Let's expand on it and see where it leads.

[Plaz]

If it will run MOS, I'd at least have a look. Lord knows retirement age is likely to reach me before a commercial AOS does based on historical progress.

knowing my luck on the day that I die, it will be the day after that some one comes out with a full Amiga up to date computer.
Sitting on a cloud looking down at it, or sitting on a hot shovel looking up.

teeny tiny rant...

I'll read a review but wouldnt buy anything that has a operating system designed by "elitists" who get it running "when its done".  

If I'm going to pay for a mobo that will support AOS or MOS and they get a few $ from my purchase, I expect, err I DEMAND updates and news on a REGULAR BASIS.  You work for ME and MY MONEY.  Prove it to me that YOUR OS is worth me wasting my money on your .  

rant off..

[swift240]

I agree with a lot of what you say, after all its our money isnt it.
And if they are smart then they will give us what we want, not what they want to sell.

I take it we are the customers arent we?

Sell what the public want not what they think we want.

[Akiko]

There is only so far your money can go....

[Homer]

Must....Resist....purchase......
Put money elsewhere....
Oh its OK, I'm with Northern Rock so my moneys all gone anyway (UK joke)
 :crazy:

[AmigaHeretic]

Well if it runs MorphOs, many will be interested.

No not again!!


What was that last board Genesi produced that we all had to hear about over and over and over again that had NOTHING to do with AmigaOS like operating systems??    How many LINKS to BLOG posts about the "Future" of Amiga that "EFIKA" was delivering did we have to see??

Efika.  Never had MorphOS.  Now it's no longer in production.

Genesi.  BELIEVE!

(UK joke)


I get it. (Having bank flashbacks of "It's a wonderful life")

I completly agrees with amigadave. Please stop disturbing me whit non available products. Anyway minimig is an interesting product, but currently it replaces only a500 and similar. So if it replaces one day an a1200 or more, then will be VERY usable and interesting.

[koaftder]

*yawn*

Wake me up when there is a product. In the mean time, DUDE I'm GETTING A DELL.

(minimig) replaces only a500 and similar. So if it replaces one day an a1200 or more, then will be VERY usable and interesting.

I think we must focus, minimig is a "16-bit solution". Maybe in the future there will be a minimig 2 that focuses in being a "32 bit solution", but please do not downplay minimig because it does not run aga/32 bit applications, it is like saying "When motorcycles have 4 wheels, THEN it will interest me".

[TheMagicM]

I am very much interested in the minimig..enough to where I'm on the first batch to pay $120 for a fully assembled mini mig.  I'm hoping to put it in my car for the kids to play games on
