From Individual Computers website: Just as last year, individual Computers will be present at this year's Gateway Amiga show in St. Louis. In addition to the known products, the prototype of the brand new VarIO Zorro-board will be presented. It replaces the totally sold-out Hypercom Zorro boards with some revolutionary new features. A new software system by Thore Böckelmann that replaces HyperIO and the silversurfer.device, gives new functions also for users who already own a Silversurfer or a Goldsurfer. In cooperation with Cloanto Software, the vendor of the "Amiga Forever" emulator, we'll show the Catweasel ISA controller that lets you read your Amiga disks with a PC. Further, there will be a class about Zorro-2 hardwaredesign on friday, march 30th. It is meant for beginners and advanced hardware designers.

It's not that is a problem per se, but you start already behind the main focus of the market.
>And Matrox is the company being supported
>IN THE BEGINNING! Noone says there will be no support for other
>manufacturers (be it from Amiga or from a 3rd party supplier).
>Amiga has to concentrate on some key points because of their limited
>resources.
I agree completely, but I wish the key points were a little more "marketeable".
I think I'm too dissapointed with the previous commercial failure of the Amiga... in case you haven't realized ;))))
>Besides: going mainstream was never the Amiga attitude anyway ;)
Perhaps it should now
Regards!
