Rick, >> I'm talking more like the A3000 type's (updated in a new model, of course). Something that the rest of us can afford and build on. Like me; I don't make a lot of money, so I have to peice my system together with little scraps of leftover money. It would take years for me to save enough for an A4000, while I could have my A1200 and spend time upgrading it. I would at least be USING it, and not wishing for it. << I fully agree. There should still be the opportunity to purchase a _modest_ machine at a reasonable price und upgrade it with needs arising. For me, it was one of the charming aspects with Amiga when I bought my first one. I could tell a whole story how my Amiga gradually (including the step from A500 to A2000, it would have been A4000 now if only available) enhanced – just, or at least almost just on the pace my purse allowed. I know that doesn't apply to the pro user. So there ought to be new high end Amigas, too. But don't forget all those pupils and students that don't own ample money – but will earn it as years go farther. Joachim Sondermann on Amiga AutoPilot from Cologne, Germany
