Amiga world what's going on?
« on: August 21, 2003, 04:28:40 AM »
I gotta tell ya.

I'm only here as a result of BeOSs unfortunate demise.
I honestly don't know if there is another person in my whole state who knows Amiga is still kickin' in any sense.

But then Amiga...
I am amazed that that it is kickin' at all.
It seems everytime I turn around it's more mayhem and mystery...

-That latest "don't run our OS on other machines" for Amiga inc.
-The problems kokogami was having with Morph's offical distrib.
-Merlancia stuff. Jeez and that gets real weird.
-Some people hate Peg.
-Some people hate A.inc.
-Some people don't like Amithlon.
-Amiga club vouchers.
-God there is a new one almost everyday -INSERT TOMORROWS HERE-

And it usually has something to do with the personalities behind the scenes. Sometimes it seems it is all over the (hallowed be thy name) "Amiga" the "Boing" logo. How many times can so many folks get burned before they just don't give a ####?

And in the meantime, I'm just a dude who wants SOMETHING to use. Something I can feel confident in paying money for!!! a company to trust?

This is not a cut on the Amiga folks out there (I consider myself one after a fashion of course), but this element of suspense did not and doesn't today exist in the BeOS world.

Is it just because Amiga has been around for a while?

Bewildered,
McNorris

P.S. Should I fork the dough and to the Morph thang?

I serious here?

So where else are you going to get as much entertainment before, during, and especially after spending your money?

I guess that is the only way to keep things lite.
I keep that in mind, but I think the idea of the amiga/morph people is to sell me something...

My next machine will probobly be a Powerbook. That idea doesn't purely discust me, but...

I wish the Amiga side had something I could feel good about.

I'll keep what you said in mind, but my wallet in my pocket.  :-D  :-(
