Armiga really worth it?

I have some intriguing questions based on the experimental Armiga device:-

>> Will this Armiga at such quite high price work for ECS/OCS games well despite your actual Amiga Floppies that can hold the indefinite data?
>> Do you live in a hot humid climate that will cause more concern for your floppy data to expire and deteriorate more faster than being in a cold climate to freeze your data from vanishing?
>> Do you have some floppies that cannot be found in emulator sites that contain the rare Cracked advertisements that contain the cheats that you wanted for so many years -- or is for you to salvage your favourite Sensible Soccer highlights and to save all that effort you did in Frontier Elite II?
>> And do you have that rare .adf file that is waiting inside that actual floppy to be rescued and immortalised to be added to TOSEC?

Well I guess the time is now to investigate if you DO have that rare Amiga data that wasn't backed up and uploaded to the Emulator webs. Because personally I hope this Armiga will work and not fail like the RetroN 5 as the cartridge slots don't easily uncouple the ROM carts and not all games work.

Best of luck if you do buy this device and hope it doesn't fail on you!
