Granted, the toaster is the biggest Amiga vaporware product since Live!, and
probably the biggest one ever.

They did get nailed by the 4X boost in memory prices caused by our government
a couple years ago, but those prices have been back to where they were for
a few months.

They did apparently put the time to good use, though.  From my materials, the
toaster contains four custom VLSI chips.

OK, so it is still vaporware.  But if it does come out, and at the $1595 price,
there will be revolution -- it is that important of a product.
