Hyperion and A-Eon should be treading a line between pleasing existing customers and winning new ones. Instead all they care about is the hardcore
I think you're reading too much user opinion here and applying that to how the aforementioned companies look at things. All is not how it seems, and I understand the frustration that brings to the forums. Sadly, you'll just have to wait to see how this all plays out. Maybe then you can reach for a more pleasant perspective.

The puzzle will never be complete when Hyperion and A-Eon only care about its most fanatical support. You're dead without new customers.
You're even more dead with no customers. And that would be the result if they tried to create something even less in the Amiga tradition than what they're currently working towards. They need revenue first, and so they aim for the hardcore users first. If the X1000 does reasonably well with the hardcore users, then *maybe* there's a basis for trying to create a product with wider appeal.
