 After weeks of the a3000ux discussion almost finally dying, someone
decides to revive it again. Look, just face the facts that
the reasons for purchasing something is dynamic and not merely
based on some algorithm for determing absolute value of a product and
then weighing it arithmatically again other products. If this wasn't
so, Sega Genesis or Turbo Graphics would have no market against nitendo.
Vax/Dec/NeXT/IBM would have no market against Sun. People willl buy
Amiga3000UX's because they like them or see some value of owning them, not
because some f(x)->power vs price equation says the Sun is better.

I just hope this settles it. Obviously its impossible to force a change
on someones opinion. So if you think the a3000ux is going to fail. Don't
buy it. Let Commodore worrying about digging their own financial grave.
