Microsoft have cracked down on retailers trying to sell alternate OS's when they sign a contract to sell Windoze. (This theoretically effecting people selling Amithlon pre-installed, or the likes). Essentially saying... : (from slashdot.org) "Some Sys Admin sent in an email that he got from Dell which basically says Microsoft will no longer allow Dell to sell PCs without an operating system. " - But if you think this was only Dell, the wording seems to effect all retailers, read article for more information: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/08/10/1420208.

In reply to Comment 28 (Alan Croft):
> Amiga is truly the safest platform for the home user to invest in
Haha. Yeah, right. I belived this 4 years or so ago when Escom first bought the Amiga. Then I sort of belived it when Gateway took over.
Right now, I don't belive anything AInc says until they deliver what they've failed to deliver so far - HARD SOLID EVIDENCE of a new Amiga product.
