Mr. Haynie, I greatly respect you for being there and sticking by the Amiga for so long. I do know that companies exist to MAKE money. I also dont really believe in being restricted to just 'one' thing. That is why I also own a PC in addition to 3 Amiga's. I am using the PC right now. But I do feel that unless the Power Amiga sells in very large quantities and still offers the uniqueness that makes it the multimedia platform that it is. That Scala will continue to market to the huge based PC crowd. Even maybe look into the PowerMac. I have read about how great MM100 is, but will stay away from it for the moment. Getting it to video for me right now is not a priority since I have a Toasted Amiga and an Opaled/SuperGen Amiga for video. But not hearing of any further upgrades of Scala on the Amiga side is saddening. Waiting 1 1/2yrs or more for a PowerAmiga and THEN waiting for Scala to consider programming for it, well, you can understand my feelings.... and pessimistic outlook.
