Why? Well........
Amiga Inc are useless, and so were Gateway, hell not a single product I can remember since ESCOM tried to sell old hat A1200 technology for 486 30FPS Doom playing PC prices has actually been made and Walker was a pathetic spec vs 486 $400 PCs :roflmao:
Cloanto are pure scum (don't even bother disputing this with me) praying on the old bones of the dead carcass of Amiga. Getting a legal agreement to do something and then getting a monopoly on selling a very shit compilation of a FREE emulator (and this business plan has been pushed onto an even more shit C64 emulator disc) does not mean it should be allowed. In fact Cloanto and the film/music industry ALONE are to blame for rife piracy this century.
C= USA made some passable retro styled case to be sold soon after a lot of very shit AIO PCs with a C= logo for you to stick on included in the box!, I suppose at least they have done the C64x...better than what any other idiots have done so far except for the C64DTV (a superior product).
Hyperion is doing nothing exciting at all, and nobody has pushed for a business solution like Open Office at their end OR a browser like Chrome (ask google FFS, they might do it just to piss M$ off). And to top it off no chance of X86 OS4. Proof that three old duffers in a shed owning the Amiga OS is NOT a good thing at all!
A-EON the most underwelming and overpriced possible 'fast' 'cutting edge' motherboard design in a very boring case design for a ridiculous price.....if this is the future of Amiga we are screwed for sure! £2000 PPC G5 <> second coming of Amiga. Call IBM and mention Xenon CPU numbnutz!
SAM - what a pile of junk too, just an Amiga OS compatible not a real Amiga anyway.
Minimig or ACA accelerators have been the only remotely positive Amiga projects this century but these are not a new Amiga, but all credit to people involved in them.
So based on all these facts, from now on I couldn't give a monkey's about 'future' Amigas, the poor girl has been raped to death by scumbug and incompetent fools owning the Amiga IP from 1996 onwards. It's like watching the movie 'I spit on your grave' looking at the history of Amiga since C= tanked in 1994.
Sorry it had to be said, for me Amiga now is those fabulous machines in the past and anything my good friend Jeri Ellsworth may produce for us in the future. Nothing else!
(not forgetting Natami and minimig AGA but these are not available at the mo so excluded from the above and one has no price or 3D demo VIDEOS and other will not even be improvement over A4000/030 from 1992 so is not a new Amiga to me).
