Lets face facts, AOS4 on the Peg would benefit everyone, except the AROS team... hmmm, maybe it's good hyperion are not into cooperation :-)

The future for amiga software, develop  for AROS and port to MOS and AOS :-)

I couldn't agree more :-D that's actaully the easiest way to support all tree systems (and even the 68k ones if they have the CPU power).

and bring OS4 to the Pegasos platform.........we need the momentum!

I didnt think that many pegasos users would want that to happen? Since most pegasos people say MorphOS is superior to os4...
Though i dont know how they can know that, since os4 is not finished yet..

But right now even CP/M users can say that what they use is superior to OS4... since they can't use OS4. :-)

I doubt any Pegasos user would be upset by being allowed to use OS4 on thier machine, however they think about it

Let people have the choice on Pegasos and end the squabbling from people who who haven't tried one OS or either.

The OS which is best, and with the most development and most software will be used by most people. Simple. The end.

I'm very glad that this discussion is going on in a calm and adult manner. All I really want is to see the different parts speaking  to each other, instead of fighting.......way to go!!

Hope this thread will make everybody important from

Amiga Inc. - Eyetech - Hyperion - Genesi - Aros

speak here without being attacked, or laughed at.

Let everybody have the right to their oppinion, and let's speak like adults to each other.......all of us!!

Then maybe we'll get together someday  ;-)  - and if not.......at least we'll still be friends  :-D

This is clearly not the case when talking about the average person, just look at windows ;-) But hopefully the amiga people is different than the average pc user :-)

and with the most development and most software will be used by most people. Simple. The end.

agree on that

[Troels_E]

There's only sold around 600 pegasos computers, thats probably not enough to make an OS4 port viable, especially as maybe only 1/4 of the pegasos owners would buy it.

As for the Pegasos2, who knows, maybe someday if Genesi wants it...

[Argo]

Since most pegasos people say MorphOS is superior to os4...   Though i dont know how they can know that, since os4 is not finished yet..

neither is Morphos.

@Bloodline

Any news on the Aros port for Pegasos?

It will be software development that will decide which OS is the most popular (assuming each one is available for the Users choice of system).

I mostly use Windows, not because it is better,  not because I prefer it, not because it's really secure, not because, it's really stable, not because of my love of free software ( ;-) think about it), but for one simple reason; It runs the software I need to do my work, and it has the drivers available to allow me to use the latest and best hardware for the job I want to do.

Sad but true.

And I mean it in the original context, i.e. I have no idea, but the guy doing the work has been reporting what he has been up to, so I'm sure every thing is fine :-D

The Pegasos users are in a quite different position.
There is already a well supported alternative in MorphOS.

The Pegasos has been specifically attracting talented
software developers in this community for quite some time
and application/game support will be strong for MorphOS.
If you look at good points like the SuperBundle or the
quality and consistency of Pegasos support websites or
even the quick turn-around on getting a new machine built
and released "nearly on schedule" and at a reasonable
price point, you can begin to see something positive
is happening here.

I see the Pegasos as a well supported solution and expect
to see a large amount of core software development happening
there with many items also supporting similar "Amiga style"
operating systems if it is convienent and there is demand
to do so.  Same can be said for other systems to some
degree, there will be a fair amount of software "sharing".

But trying to convince people one way or the
other based on assumptions or guesses isn't helping things
much in any case. More people need to try MorphOS and
experience the system "first hand" to develop an opinion
based on something real rather than an imagined perception
of what it might represent.  Give it a try, it's worthwhile.

I´m buying the hardware because I want to run the software, not the other way around. ¨

Why  shouldn´t Genesi have to pay a licence to sell hardware for Hyperion´s software?

[Madgun68]

neither is Morphos.

Huh? Are you replying to someone or just mumbling to yourself?
