- The cost of the A4000T is high not because of the custom chip set
- (which is really not worth all that much money today), but due to low
- production volume and lack of the commodities market environment that
- is the situation with Intel/MS-DOS/Windows machines. Amiga
- Technologies has said that prices will come down once production is in
- full swing. Let's hope so, because price is the real trouble spot for
- the Amiga right now.
