Raquel Velasco & Bill Buck / Genesi's Clarifications

[System]

@ zacman

Do you know that Raquel is the main shareholder?

No, I do not *know* that. I have only read Bill Buck's mention of this, but if this is true or not I don't know, as there have been lots of cases where I do know where Bill twisted facts.

But regardless I completely fail to see how this makes him a good CEO. Personally I may have a huge stake in a very successful company as well, but does this make my wife a suitable CEO for a company?

get for example licenses that no other Amiga company is able to get.

I would already be more content if they would finally release a MorphOS feature list. But of course I am also curious to know what these wonderful licenses could be, but who is your source? Hopefully not Bill Buck?

You'll see in Aachen.

Yes, we'll see.  :-)

No kidding! Where the hell did I ever say AOS was open source to begin with? Hint, I never have.

What I said at the time was that, if you believe open source to be the only possible and interesting future, why are you an AmigaOS or Amithlon fan, as both have been closed source since day one. I was just suprized to see my own arguments as yours.

I still say AmigaOS is doomed as it is, exactly because it wasn't OSS'd

And I believe the OS would be commercially doomed if the OS would be open sourced (which may also be impossible to do, due to 3rd party licensed code).

So, we disagree. The fact of the matter is that we don't own AmigaOS, so we cannot give the OS away or decide to open the sources.

IMO it would be very stupid to do this at this point, as Amiga Inc first had to pay millions of dollars for their IP and afterwards rivals could easily abuse their IP.

Anyway your insults will continue no matter what, so further discussion with you would be useless. And actually I was only curious to know why you are trying to paint yourself of as a moralizer (especially within recent threads), and it is now obvious that you are just faking.

Where is this GREAT MorphOS??
Some days ago, I read an article of somebody who tryed this system, sying that it's full of errors and not very stable.
You know what I think they want to join forces for? They want help from Eyetch and Hyperion to get OS 4 running on Pegasos, because their MorphOS won't run well in the near future and they need a "real" OS for their hardware.
