Unlike the other posters, I think you're right. Retro and emotions can very well sell machines - that's the selling point of Commodore rebranded merchandise and - surprise - even AmigaONE/AmigaOS4.
two issues here:
1st If you really wanna go retro then you need the Amiga brand. MOS has not and - to be honest - I am happy that it does not have it.
2nd Retro might sell some units but it is the opposite of innovative (who does take the new VC-20 mp3 player by Commodore serious? Ít's a relabeld MP3 player by Tulip..). I really prefer to see Peg/MOS as an innovative thing than as a 80ies revival thing.
If you wanna retro just buy an Amiga forever CD or browse the web for UAE.

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
