To even try to set some new base Amiga standard "for the masses" the price would have to be much more down to earth. ZX Next managed to fund their stuff with, now seemingly paltry, 180 pounds entry (I think it was 230 for the expandend one). I think if there was something like 350E tag on a Amiga Next, it could really become a new standard.

for the masses you need the vampire as ASIC (perhaps all integrated in one chip) and produced in big numbers
