Hi to all!
Not long ago I contacted Derek Steward to asked him a few things about
the Q60 for my QL-article (which will be published in the next issue
of Amiga Future, www.amigafuture.de).
To my surprise he told me, that the Q60 is still available from D&D
Systems, if there are at least ten orders for a new batch.
As I am very interested in a Q60 (I think it is still a fine QL-
successor and -replacement) I want to ask, if there are other people,
who are willing to buy a new Q60?
I know, that the price of the Q60 was often criticized, but compared
for example with similar projects in the Atari-world (Milan, Medusa)
the Q60 has a very fair price (for a very special computer in small
quantities).
Beside of this, I suggested Derek to sell the Q60 not only as complete
system but also only the motherboard. I think most of us are able to
build a complete system around the motherboard, so this solution would
be cheaper than buying a complete system (especially when you live
outside of GB - shipping costs!).
In general I find it a little bit sad, that the Q60 wasn´t a greater
success and that there is no new "real" hardware in the QL-land anymore.
Don´t get me wrong: QPC is a great product and I bought it from Jochen
a few months ago. But I think real hardware is important, too. So I
hope, that there are at least nine other people, who are thinking like
me;-)
Kind regards,
Anton
