What I'm trying to do, now that I've been a member for a while, and have read many threads, and posts, it to shake things up.
It must be realized that the community must get up off its collective arse, and make known its opinion. That opinion should be that all of these incompetent concerns that are supposedly working towards the day when the Amiga will again rise, are doing nothing more than squabbling like children.
Projects that will never get off the ground have to be abandoned, and the efforts put into those that have some chance of being completed.
But, the truth is that, in here, and in all the other places I've visited, other than the help groups, all I see is complaining and whining.
The people who run these groups have got to get together, pool their members and resources, and then, as a group, make it clear to those morons who have been screwing around for so many years, what it is that is expected.
And then, support for those who don't seem to understand, should be withdrawn.
The most realistic route has got to be taken. I've looked at this for a long time, and I truly can't find any better idea than to move to x86 at this point.
What does the community really want? Does it want an updated OS that they can actually run? Or do they want to keep their fingers crossed in the hope that maybe SOMEDAY, someone will finally release something useful?
As the OS really doesn't seem to be going anywhere, and the hardware is going to fewer places than the software, someone has to say; Enough!
The longer it takes, the fewer people who will wait around and care. It will get to the point that it will never be finished, because they see a smaller market each time they look. It's a downward spiral. Let it go on too long, and all will be left is the one or two sites that have almost no costs.
When I see boards that cost absurd amounts of money for what are basically obsolete products, I feel disgusted.
When a Mac Mini, or cheap Dell can run rings around these products, I see doom, and I don't mean the game!
