Amiga & AROS More information is trickling out about the new Amiga hardware. In an email to Amiga dealers, Bill McEwen, CEO of Amiga, Inc., writes: "As mentioned in the press release we are in the final stages with the design of new hardware and getting them into production. Something that will be different than what happened with the AmigaOne is that we will be purchasing these new machines in the more than 1,000 units per order. This will allow us to get better pricing and quality for all of you. The specs for the sub 500.00 machines will be out on Monday and the more expensive machine the following week. Production will begin soon and they will be ready this summer."

What the hell are you going on about?

The Amiga user club is more extreme than the Apple club; there is a loyalty to death that many of us have pledged, and you'll find that these machines aren't targeted at youngsters such as yourself - the ones that have been sucking on the tit that is Microsoft since conception.

Believe me, if AmigaOS is as well integrated and running as it was on the old Amiga hardware, and comes with a decent array of new software and the ability to run old in some form or another, its going to be alot of fun for many of us old farts.

Oh, and Commadore didn't fail because of Amiga, it was the fact they put their PC business ahead of their Amiga business, which was actually turning a profit; quite frankly, they should have killed off their PC business, focused on improving the Amiga, and never came out with the ill fated Amiga CD32. It was a stupid idea from day one quite frankly.
