In fact, we ported 2 Mac titles, 1 Amiga title and did the firmware for the AmigaOne hardware
maybe I'm blind, but I don't see anything here that reads in any way as a likely intentional misrepresentation of coding versus porting. HyperionMP never said 'we developed the firmware internally from scratch', and the active verb in the sentence is "ported"
It seems a bit too jumpy to immediately run to the idea that by saying 'did' Hyperion is somehow implying that anything other than porting was done. Give the man a break why don't you? He's writing a response off the top of his head on a discussion board, and on top of that his response is in English, which is one of the most naturally ambiguous languages in existence.
The more I look at this site the more I think everybody just needs to calm WAY down.
