Ben, its the guessing games that make CI$ fun! I'm throwing ideas back
and forth and not claiming to be perfect. The A500 and A2000 are probably
high-profit items for Commodore. And by making all owners either buy the A520
or (usually) the Commodore monitor, they make even more.
What is your opinion on this: CBM decides to develop an A1000+ (i.e.
slots, Agnus and KS ROM) and they decided to make the same profit margin (%)
off of the 1000+ as they do off the 500/2000 series, what do you think the
A1000+ would cost? What would development cost? As you develop hardware
products, what do you think the final costs would be?
