Why not just take both worlds? The reason why Commodore in Europe 
did much better during the last years than in US was that we have
also a strong part of the PC market here. Sales volume in this
market is not so much different from the Amiga market. So we have
a comfortable situation to satisfy our customers with whatever they
want. Gee, why is there such a difference? Actually, we GET those
PCs from Commodore US!?!? But we hear that marketing in US is
strongly improving, so perhaps we'll debate Commodore 386's also
here :-)

(I should state strongly that I ONLY LOVE my Amiga!)
