Adult conversation about this whole EULA issue.

[lempkee]

hold your horses for a min..

i think u guys missed something here,
the deal is about "SELLING and ADVERTISING" , ie thats what is illegal,... aint it?

an example would be..

Pegasos 2 , runs morphos 2.x , Amiga Os4 , mac os X , and linux bla ?

aint it? ...hmm stop me if i am wrong.

my point is , genesi wouldnt be allowed to crack a os to work on their hw, that is illegal no matter what , or?

but running macosx on a amigaone/linux/pegasos aint breaking the eula...right? , as long as the machine aint marketed (like a certain website at this very moment) with alot of os's .

a last bit , why is os3.x needed for pegasos , and why does genesi want to liscense this ?
(since they allready claimed it is amiga api compatible) .

sorry for the sidetracks but i really want to get some answers here , i have my own opinions and i have a bigger experience with pegasos (my closest neighbour have one) and he have his opinions..

[lempkee]

whats the story on...

i went and bought mac osX today , i dont have a mac but the people in the shop didnt ask me either.

will i break the eula if i did this?

[lempkee]

hmm something is very wrong here..


my os3.9 cd has a installer for uae function,and as i read here earlier its stated u are allowed to use os3.9 on a machine u actually had amigaos running on before...or something....ugh i am so confused.

help anyone!!

os3.9 is a addon to os3.1 we all know this, so basically all who have 3.1 could use 3.9 or?

and pegasos doesnt (or claim so) have os3.x , only reversed os code.

so if i am right then pegasos cant and aint allowed to use 3.9 , but then u have this uae thingy...  if it has an installer for it ON the damn cd, aint that like...heh i have no words...
as then its only for pegasos people to buy or take their stuff from the old amiga and put over and into uae..and set up 3.9..

help! anyone... this is really confusing

just a quick dir list:

2.AmigaOS3.9:OS-Version3.9> list in#? all
Install-Tools                      Dir ----rwed 11-Sep-00 10:47:18
Installation-Emu.info             2796 ----rw-d 08-Feb-01 11:23:07
Installation.info                 2792 ----rw-d 08-Feb-01 11:23:07
Installer                          Dir ----rwed 11-Sep-00 10:47:23
Internet                           Dir ----rwed 08-Feb-01 13:36:19
2 files - 3 directories - 10 blocks used


this is an orginal cd ofcourse, this is how mine looks inside that dir.

hope it helps

i am skimming my os3.9 cd..., and now i noticed the registration process again..

i never got a reg card when i bought my os3.9 cds, infact i never checked the html doc before now even ... and heh its 2+ years since i bought os3.9...geez.

so either my shop did it or i have some weird version or simply didnt get a regcard (with user number) ... the cd's (both versions of 3.9) is in a jewel case with a paper manual in color , no box like os3.5 ..

the inlet manual is 7+7 pages (english + german).

do i have an cd unlike yours ? , since allready several here stated their 3.9 doesnt have EMU install ...

sorry for doing it in this thread but its somewhat relevant to the topic discussion....

[lempkee]

bhogget: thanx , i had a feeling of the same but i had to know for sure...
so basically where and what are we atm with EULA.

also, can you please check your os3.9 cd again , and tell me if its boxed or in jewel case etc,and compare date stamps from my dir list...ie maybe mine was an later version or something ..but it need'd bb1 when that came , ie its not that late of an version if so is the case.
(infact i only bought it 3-4 months after it came in the shops)

cheers

redrumloa: was that aimed at me ? (your answer)

os3.5 doesnt have this emu install afaik, i can check ...

cheers
