Just a note about the user who referred to himself as 'this editor' in a previous edit to the article and spoke at length about his particular oddity of an Amiga - this is not an encylcopaedic way to write articles, please refrain from talking about yourself when you edit articles. It just make the article look sloppy and amateurish. I've kept the point about the UX models being sold as standard machines, though I fear that it may be deleted in the future as original research.

P.S. - AmigaDOS was the program that handled disk acces, not the operating system, which never had a name, only the informal 'Workbench' (after a labeling error by Commodore) which was actually the UI or the retrospective AmigaOS, which only came into existence with OS3.5 Seek100 23:43, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

The bit about repurposed systems does seem like a stretch -- looking back at the original text, the contributor appears to have bought a used machine that had been modified in at least one other way (custom paint job). The idea that "some machines may have been repurposed by Commodore" is thus based on one dubious data point; adding "or a third party" is only stating the obvious and makes the whole idea unnoteworthy. The edit to this obscures this by calling the one datum "some", strongly implying that other such machines have been found, which is not indicated by the original text.--NapoliRoma 14:17, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
