The saddest thing though is that CommodoreUSA's money men are coming in and stamping all over the efforts of smaller groups of engineers and developers. You know, people who actually do stuff?
Anyway, a $30m outlay on advertising alone means we either have a pack of complete and obvious lies or we're dealing with big-league players. In the first case, we sit back and watch the fireworks. In the latter case, we hope that our favourite groups don't get trodden on.

You did claim that there were more Phoenixes in the wild than there are AmigaNG systems. I was being inclusive and giving a pessimistic estimate, 5000, of the number of MOS, AOS4 and AROS systems out there.
Well, whatever. Doesn't matter. This explains why there haven't been posts on Commodore fansites, I guess.
While I have your attention, has CommodoreUSA made any contact with Hyperion? Are these Amiga branded PCs ever going to run an x86-64 port of the AmigaOS and thus become real Amiga computers? Before today I would have said that the cost would prohibit this, but if you can afford a $30m ad campaign, wouldn't a million or two so Hyperion can hire extra developers and bring the AmigaOS to the cutting edge also be within your means?
And do you plan to talk to any other Amiga-related company about branding or marketing? Having a PowerAmiga lineup for the enthusiast alongside your x86 games machines would add value to the brand.
You claim that you've sold more 'Commodore Phoenixes' than there are NG Amiga systems. That must mean at least 5000 sales. Why have we seen no reviews, or indeed no posts anywhere on the internet from excited purchasers declaring that they've just got back into their favourite computer brand?
The same way B.McEwen claimed AmigaAnywhere 2 was better than MacOSX without showing a single demo to anyone ? :)
But please LEO, Bill McEwen never said AA2 is better than one operating system. AA2 is no operating system, it is a programming tool. A programming tool can never be called the operating system of,. But this you already know. You use this way to write to dirty the new Commodore.
The style is not in the long run!
Who wants to see a demo here? No! For what they show is the gauntlet again.
