No doubt by masses, less likely by Classic users. In other words people would buy it as cute Mac like PC dubbed "Amiga" more then because initial link back. If they did A500/A1200 case, that might change the situation, like C64x was relatively praised. However, even if they lasted longer with no pricing policy change, I doubt much success.

as you say yourself c64x was quite smart move, i suppose it could be booted either directly into emulation or into linux, something like aeros (aros/linux combo) or os4 (with linux emulation, amicygnix, whatever it is called, or double boot os4/linux) attempt to.besides why do you want to tell us "classic" users, what we would accept or not? time would tell.

Well loyalty in emotional sense, not as given order, must-do, and so on. Informed decision, like I am perfectly aware what I am going to buy, instead of suggested MacPro. So I swap emotional value and support to Hyperion/A-EON over highly productive and fancy product. Who knows in 5 years I might change mind again if they don`t do 4.2, OO, TW

you mix up loyalty to people for moral, humanly reasons, which is of course in many causes a positive thing (even if it may be misused and/or unhealthy) with self imposed loyalty towards trade marks, which is outright stupid. if there is anything applicable to amiga, this is no loyalty but sentiment.
