Well, I hope whatever it is (and I hope I don't offend everyone) that CBM
is developing will be marketed well. A lot of people will sugar coat CBM's
policy regarding marketing, but when it comes down to it, it is what has
hurt the Amiga most. The Amiga of 1985 was years ahead of anything at the
time, be it PC, Mac, or ST. Unfortunately, CBM rested on its laurels.
And, if you believe what you hear, the next generation of computers which
are due out next year will probably be quite a bit ahead of their time.
The interesting part will be if CBM can market it right. God knows if IBM
or Apple had the Amiga, it would be a household name (the price wouldn't be
too household friendly, though) 🙂
