keep in mind that 3.1.4 is sold and licensed for use on physical Amiga machines, not on emulators. There is an EULA for that. In case you wonder why this is spelled out - the problem has a name, and this name is "Cloanto".

Are you even aware of the content of the ADF images sold? The "problem" here is not Cloanto, something you apparently will have to learn the hard way.

Then I am sure Cloanto's lawyers will appreciate to know that Hyperion is selling an OS that clearly also targets emulation market, since there is a dedicated kickstart image specified for use with emulators.

The EULA (which is void, since customer must buy the product to get hold of the EULA) says that this version of AmigaOS legally can be installed on any system for which there exists a legal copy of AmigaOS - which in essence means _ANY_ computer in the world.

I suggest you check in with Hyperion yourself.

Kolla, you know only little, and do not know all the backgrounds, and yet play here an armchair lawyer. I suggest to leave this to the professionals. I will stop here, knowing you are just trolling - as always. Reasons have been given, if you do not accept them, this is not my problem. As anyone else, you can go to coart if you want a legally binding answer.

Drop the patronising besserwissery - I don't need to do go through "coart", https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/ is the place to go.

Looks like my complaint to the European Commission has led to a change - the EULA is now presented to buyers _before_ one can click to buy. Good, getting somewhere.
