I've always liked fan created mockups of nextgen machines, even if they will never see the light of day.

This one sure is pretty and shiny, but like others have said it looks terribly unusable.  Then again, I only liked the big box Amiga's anyways and not the 500/600/1200, so I'm most certainly in the minority there.

I think most things should have drink holder! We love them in our cars but they never made the transition to other parts of our lives. My cat comes and deliberately tries to knock over my beer.

Well maybe cat holder? Or a beer holder; I have a lot of cats, so maybe a whole beer-cat-computer system. Wow I'm having a break through moment!  BCC, hmmm

You shouldn't drink & drive you know... :)

Best solution would be to put the cats in a sack and drown them in the nearest canal... no more spilt drinks... problem solved... ;)

Or find that woman who stuffs them in wheelie bins... :)

As a kid, I would sleep with at least one tractor-trailer truck and Tonka of some kind. Amazingly I'm still here. :)

I like that the keys are back lit, or look that way.


My buddy once shot me in the forehead with a Master of the Universe Battle Cannon. I think that has something to do with the fact that I opt to use old, out dated computers over modern and currently supported ones.

In regards to the cat and beer issue...

...they do make Cup holders for computers, or so I've was told by my customers when I used to do tech support for a local ISP.

I've attached an image of one in case you are having issues finding yours. Though I will warn you, they are only compatible with the pointy ended Dixie cups.

I like the look, but I'm a tech loving goth so it sits well with me. As for the keyboard leverage issue, mmm... looks like space to slip in an add on wrist rest thus improving ergonomics too. Just a thought....

That might just work, a little dremmel work, presto! Like the way it is disguised as a CDROM tray too. The Dream Lives!

I thin it looks smart myself, but then what do I know.
At times I think people tend to complain more about something than not, at least its better than nothing.
Yes I do respect others opinions about Amiga products but hey lets face it they are doing some thing we are not. And thats being productive so others can complain about it.

Is it still a new project that will not pass the project stage?
Is it the next Not-Compatible-AMIGA machine by COMMODORE USA ? :)

http://design.yozmontana.com[/b] (by Yoz Montana)

My opinion: the design is very beautiful.

   



What an eye-catcher!
But I wouldn't have any use for it as it obviously lacks any expandability.
I prefer Big Tower cases because of their expandibility.

It should read "The dream made reality" or "The dream has finally arrived".



Or "The wait is over - the dream is becoming real!"...
