You mean they can't sell 600 to 1,200, buy more supplies, sell 600 to 1,200 more and so on, until they reach 10,000+??? That's strange.

Selling 600 boards takes an eternity. Amiga resellers cant suck so many boards in one go._________________

The question is not even if they could _sell_ them, but merely if the can _build_ them and _develop_ them. This is the point when the majority of capital is usually spend.
Funding and lack of investors is a serious issue in a rather unprofitable niche market such as this. The only way that I see to make some profits, sell a reasonable amount of units and attract some -serious- investors is to not only target the Amiga market, thus (hello Atheist!) no having a fixed 1:1 ratio.
But keep on dreaming about IBuM buying Amiga Inc., Hyperion and Troika for 100 Billion Dollars and pushing the Amiga platform so that Windross is dead by 2010.  _________________
