Device come Smartphone ed Tablet (magari anche pc e console) sono in pole position... Di contro, i profitti ottenuti da Ainc sia da questa operazione sia dalla vendita propria dei titoli Amiga, potrebbero essere reinvestiti in un nuovo progetto di hardware marchiato Amiga (magari con un nuovo AmigaOS o una riproposizione dell'idea di amiga everywhere), specie dopo la chiusura di C=USA seguita alla scomparsa del suo CEO, con il rilancio ufficiale di Amiga rimasto incompiuto.
Vedremo se finalmente qualcosa di buono potrà nascere dall'infinita svendita, lunga quasi vent'anni, di un patrimonio della cybercultura. Nelle prossime settimane dovrebbero arrivare maggiori informazioni:
