- Excuse me for commenting on this thread, but that doesn't make a whole lot
- of sense, does it? Why spend millions of dollars for a dead computer?
- It would have been much easier for VIScorp to build a PC variant set-top
- box, but they wanted the small, cool apps that run on the Amiga. The
- whole point to using the Amiga in the box was to bring content and give a
- market to software developers that will put food on their tables. It's a
- synergy kind of thing. Neither can do it alone.
