I disagree. The products that CUSA has delivered are real and it didn't take them 7 years. The Natami team hasn't delivered a single product and they won't even provide a release date for anything they are developing.
They are real, yes, in the sense that they are physical objects you can purchase with legal tender that do, more or less, work as advertised. What they
aren't is anything much in the "not a PC clone" department. Natami has taken a long time, yes, no question about that, but that's because it's a full computer system being developed by a team of hobbyists. And their rationale for not providing a release date (to wit: they want to take the time and make sure it's done right) is, to my way of thinking, perfectly reasonable.
Unfortunately you don't see CUSA's survey as an opportunity to develop something Amiga users might want. All you want to do is complain.
That's not true at all. I was the
first response in this entire thread, with a completely straightforward and complaint-free answer to BigBenAussie's question. Really, true fact! You can even go back and see for yourself!
I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for this to come to anything, but that doesn't mean I'm not intrigued by it.
You don't like CUSA. We get it. So why do you have to keep harping about it? No one is forcing you to buy their products or participate in their survey but you seem to be obsessed with bashing them. We just got rid of that troll Fanko and now you're doing a wonderful job of filling the vacuum he left behind.
As I've said many times to everybody who has ever come at me with the "why do you keep restating this" line, when I am on an Internet forum and I come across a (active) thread on a subject I hold an interest in, I enter into the discussion and state my relevant opinions. This is how Internet forums
work. If you do not like reading websites wherein people express views contrary to your own, you might try starting a blog and disabling comments, or simply go to the logical conclusion and start a website containing your opinions and nothing else.
Alternatively, you could try the ignore-user facility. But that would just be
silly.
