My personal opinion is:
1. Natami suits to old demo coders who love to mess with registers of classic (1980's style) chipsets and 68k assembler programming.
2. Like mr. Dickinson says X1000 is targeted to existing Amiga users who want to upgrade from their existing AmigaOne and Sam models. (I would say also it's for those people who want to see how close to the main stream Amiga can still get in 2010's).
Two completely different markets.
Also if the reason to favor Natami is because it has a programmable FPGA chip. Wasn't GPU's and shader units of nowadays gfx cards programmable too ?
(Edit) Also I think Sam's and AmigaOS are perfect for green computing market.
Yes, Apple and Amiga should not be compared ever. Apple became what they are now entering mp3 downloading business with the most perfect timing (nothing to do with desktop and laptop computers), they didn't ever go bankrupt and so on... We all know all of this already.
