- Why is everyone so fixed on pizza box styles? These are going to be more expensive
- then a standard pc box (surely - there are much higher retooling/manufacturing
- costs).

- How about putting all Amigas in PC boxes (maybe one all-in-one for the surfer
- set-top type idea). Detachable keyboard, decent power supply, loads of
- space for drives. Costs could be kept down by not putting slots in the
- lower end models.
