Derek Stewart of D&D Systems is just back from a trip, I guess he'll check
the "sales" account soon.

The Q60 is sold from D&D Systems in England.

It touches me to see that folks still want native highend 68k systems
although we are nowhere able to compete with the price of a PC based
emulator. We are not even advertising in the magazines anymore but orders
keep coming.

When folks invest so much money there still must be more in a native QL
system that just the capabilty to execute a QL OS. What is this today?

Is it the simplicity of the system? Power consumption issues / fanless CPU
operation? Direct access to the hardware without emulated software layers?
The fast boot into the 68k OS after power-on? The option to do totally
without Windows or Linux? Intel outside? Nostalgia? Tinkering and
learning? A little bit of all of them? Something else?
