I really loved my Amiga computers, especially the 4000. This is not the old Commodore corp. from the 1980's; thank God.
But, what will this unit run? The quad core system is $1280. How much can it be modified with better graphics cards or memory? I did not see anything about this...

now you just need wireless graphics "cable" ;-)

It´s looking nice, but I am not sure if this thing makes sense - desktop replacement? Most people then take the all in one solution, a laptop. Multimedia for TV? I don´t need a lap warmer actually.

So my first reaction is "coool", the second one is "hmm, for every purpose I can think of, there are better working alternatives"

P.S I had the Commodore VC20 "some" years ago. Today even my coffee machine has more computational power ;-)
