Greg,
There's no question that the Amiga, from an engineering and system
software perspective, is a superb platform. This is largely what has kept
the machine alive to this point.
There's also no question that from a marketing perspective, the Amiga is a
complete disaster. "Commodore marketing" is an oxymoron. There is no
Commodore marketing. Just occasional lame, half-hearted approximations.
Money is not the most important factor here. The important factors are
creativity and innovation; here C= comes up empty-handed.
IMO, if this situation does not soon change, the Amiga will soon cease to
be a viable platform for software development. As Ben says, "The writing's
on the wall."
