Sounds like they've put an Amiga 500 motherboard, extra RAM, a Mac drive, and the Toaster (along with a bit of software glue) in a box and called it a new product. That would fit the $4000 price ($1500 toaster, $500 Amiga, $2000 in circuit boards, software, and packaging). Note that it doesn't attach to the Mac as a peripheral, as far as I can see. -- Peter da Silva. `-_-' .
