A lot of us see the home user market as targets for the X1000 in some sense, and that is why I mentioned browsing, mp3s, video playback as requirements as you average joe is going to want to do most of that- I believe the X1000 could do those without problem.
The problem is the average Joe is not going to be spending north of 1,500 GBPs to do web browsing. iPad2 for 399 GBP, OTOH, I can see for home browsing.
For standard web browsing I don't see the X1000 being underpowered at all.

No wof course the other issue is that of things like Flash and other closed technologies - that is where it becomes hard to compete in certain markets (such as browsing) if you don't have the latest and greatest tech.
I have no doubt that the X1000 could handle most if not all of your average (Note average) users needs, and that is a start. After that it is about offering something that other platforms don't that users want.

Stop being delusional about ANY Amiga competing with systems in the home PC market. And the X1000 nor the SAM nor any other Amiga offer anything that other platform users want but can't find in their PC. Stop living in a fantasy land where you think that Amiga will regain a share of any market other than the hobbyist market
