As for pricing, remember the following: 1. There are about 150,000 Amigas vs. about 5,000,000 I.B.M.s 2. Market penetration for a hardware product ranges from 3% (fair) to 9% (outstanding) 3. A manufacturer should expect to sell about 7,500 Amiga add-ons vs. 250,000 for an I.B.M. 4. The leading 1 MEG add-on board for the I.B.M. (Intel AboveBoard with 1 Meg installed) retails for $699.00, yet the leading 1 MEG add-on board for the Amiga (the C Ltd. aMEGA Board, which has more components than the Intel and a case for external mounting which is not needed on the Intel because it is an internal board) has a suggested retail of only $549.00
