    I didn't "calculate" anything but just listened to what Trevor said himself at AmiWest 2011:

    "I'm looking at several new hardware developments with Varisys and we just signed the contracts for three new developments. Two of them are quite exciting, one will just [...unintelligible...] a PCI board with XMOS stuff on it [...]. We're looking at two other areas for new hardware which will hopefully help to bring again a new community together in the future."

    True, it's been announced as a Hyperion thing. But I suspect that sales are supposed to be handled by AmigaKit.
