Outsiders view of Amiga Community

The domain name and the subject line are conflicting somewhat.

Guys, lay off the trolling, for gawd's sake.  Personally I couldn't care less if you were saying "MorphOS sucks" or "AmigaOS sucks", they're both just as much trolling comments.

It's not interesting to read those comments, and it can't be that interesting to think them up.

I'd hate to think some peoples' primary motivations were to offend other people.

If that was your intention, then surely a more impartial source, as well as not a forum post, would have been more interesting?  Say for example an independent hardware reviewing site*.

As soon as I saw the words 'forum' and 'atari' I didn't bother to read the article.  I'm sure that applies for quite a few other people as well.

* - admittedly they're tough to find, some of the popular ones have their allegiances too :-)

I wasn't suggesting you were deliberately trying to be misleading or biased.  I was merely suggesting a better potential source of information in terms of reputability.  Yes, there has been very little on the AmigaOne hardware or OS4 from independent sources.  Maybe something that will change when OS4 is released.

It would make a significant difference if AI decided to send samples of A1/OS4 machines out to the big name reviewing sites.

@ kd7ota

The platform is Pegasos.  The OS is MorphOS.

If you don't know anything about it, then surely you shouldn't be venturing an opinion on it?
