Where do you take the confidence from that people will jump up and rush to get a plain x86 box with a Commodore label sticked on it? |
People buy MSI, ASUS, ACER, Toshiba, Sony..., branded "just PCs" over the much cheaper no-name PC stuff. IMHO, Commodore name can easily play level to any of those names. Plus, the C64 community and memory is still very much alive and many of those people(some, what, 20-30 million) might feel nostalgic enough to buy it. IMHO, why not? Out of those 20-30 million ex C64 users they should be able to sell 50 000 easily, not counting new comers and those that have to have cool hardware no matter the cost(which will be affordable I'm assured).

This is exactly what I meant - why should I buy an x86 box when I cannot run AmigaOS on it? I already have an x86 XP-PC anyway... |
It's not marketed at you, but rather at me and mainstream people... that's a market of several hundred million users, rather then several thousand users that AmigaOS is marketed at.
