Are you buying Amiga X1000?
 
I was shock on how much it is going cost...£1,500.....if does sell well then it is possible to have cut down versions called X500 in affordable price...

My questions....Are you buying it and if yes

why do you want Buy Amiga X1000?

How good is Amiga X1000?

Will they have new games for it?

When they going to release the system? Before Xmas?:)

  • Absolutely not.
  • It will be as lame as the Pegasus / AmigaOne. Overpriced and terribly underpowered.
  • There will only be ports of opensource homebrew titles. No new mainstream games.

You can buy it as PC but you should forgot about "Amiga" part.

deicidal 03 September 2010 15:18

Much as I love the amiga I think i'd rather keep the money

pmc 03 September 2010 15:22

I think alexh's bullet points sum it up quite nicely, sadly... :(

chiark 03 September 2010 15:28

I'll buy them off you for £3000 each.

Paul_s 03 September 2010 16:28

no. It shouldn't even have the Amiga name next to it.

TCD 03 September 2010 16:28

On the 'Stuff that makes TCD sad about the current Amiga... something' list, that one surely has a top position, but it was beaten by that Commodore US thingy...

Jimbo 03 September 2010 16:35

I am buying two, one for me and one for alexh.

Thorham 03 September 2010 16:36

Computers such as the X1000 aren't Amigas, they're just PPC (or something :D)+peecee parts. Underpowered and overpriced. It's similar to the so called 'Amiga' peecee, not an Amiga at all (just a peecee with Amiga stickers and Aros, some Amiga).

So, no, I will most certainly not spend my money on that kind of thing. If I would spend that kind of money on a computer, it would be a beastly peecee.

No you won't, alexh has already offered me £4000 each.

killergorilla 03 September 2010 16:45

How about I just send you Duck Tales the Movie on VHS?

seuden 03 September 2010 16:53

Sold.

gulliver 03 September 2010 17:30

I will try certainly buy one, and then resell it on ebay at north of $5000.

But if you are an EAB member I can give you a discount, so lets say $4999

£1,500
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

...and no definately not.

Oli_HD 03 September 2010 18:27

Nope sorry, not an Amiga in my book. Just a PPC PC (like everyone else says), I didnt buy an A1 either for the same reason.

The NatAmi (Or Boxer!) I WOULD buy though, even if it was £1500.
