    Wow, if Genesi offered to give them $100 out of $199 price on each Efika sold, I can't for the life of me imagine why they wouldn't take it! If Genesi then sold two thousand Efikas (which isn't out of the question at all, IMHO) that would be 200,000 USD.

    I would think that $200,000 would be a pretty significant kick in the pants to the development of a 'hobby' OS. Maybe after that the price of the boards could go down, I mean even if they sold the board for $129 (as an example) and gave MOS team $29, that would still be huge-if they could get these things into Fry's or somewhere. Just think-a PPC based mobo which competes very well against the VIA style low-end x86 mobos around, for a somewhat similar price, and you could just walk into Fry's and buy it! It'd be like having a successful product in the main stream or something! OMG!

    Naah, this is an offshoot of the 'Amiga community' so let's discontinue this product immediately lest it actually make someone some money! ;-)
