It's a pity then you don't like Amiga users as much as your Amigas...

What do either have to do with A-Eon?

You don't need 3D. Write a cool application to handle your movie/music collection and sell it as HTPC. Or make a wii fit board for it.


Sell it to who? The handful of other X1000 owners? Might as well throw your money away.

Another question I'd like to have answered.  Does Hyperion have an answer to the Apple Developer Connection to assist in future software development?

Nope. One of the "fun" things about OS4 is you get zero official support. None, zip, nada. Figure it out on your own, or hope somebody on Amigaworld has an answer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I find it odd that Jorkany would know what sort of support a developer targeting OS4 would get given that s/he's probably never actually developed anything for it.

Not so odd actually. Anyone can observe what happens when an OS4 user needs help, the forums are the beginning and end of OS4 support. Take this thread for example, there have been many like it over the years:
http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=31385&forum=15

Hyperion has nothing even remotely close to resembling the level of support found for other OSes, a few examples are below. This relates more to the question I originally responded to:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx
http://developer.apple.com/
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Aros/Developer/Docs
http://www.ubuntu.com/support
...etc. etc. you get the idea!

Someone a few posts up mentioned that developers can ask Hyperion for help. While it's true that I don't use OS4, I have heard from people who have used it and I also know that contacting Hyperion is no guarantee of any support, or even a response. You're better off on the forums. Even most flavors of Linux go beyond this nowdays.
