Hello
There is an old Chinese tradition that babies born on the year of Goat (starting Feb 1, 2003) will have bad luck in their life.
Amiga Inc plan to release AmigaOS 4 on March 2003.
Is the bad luck / curse from "the year of goat" will follow AmigaOS 4? :-)

oooooooohh! DOOOOM!!!
you know, some people will probably blame any amigas problems on this, this year!
;-)
-
I think the Amiga luck problem goes back a little bit further than the expected release date of the fourth revision of the OS. :-(
-
Since we're in no real danger of OS4 coming out in 2003, I think things'll be just fine.

Launch, not release.

and since when does 2003 end in March ? (this is the launch date for OS4 (CEBIT ?))
Asian - when does the Chinese new year commence ?
-
The local shipyard will be 'releasing' their latest ship in March.
We can't be sure when they'll 'launch' it though. ;-)

LOL!
I first thought this thread was by that goatse.cx troll...
:lol:
-
Well, this might or might not be...
But, 2002 was the year of the Horse. This is when MorphOS was born on one with wings by the way...:-D
Go Pegasos!
:-P
Just having fun!
R&B :-)

One could argue that Aos was born in the early-mid 80.
Hmm let me check my almanack... Sure here it is: Aos is actually born in the year of the furious hamster... Now see that makes a lot more sense :-D
-
@Desler:
furious hamster...
:roflmao:
furious?
:roflmao:
I love that.....
-
Oh no, I have a funny feeling in my toe. OS4 will therefore be a complete disaster.
-
Is this thread for real?
(Cantonese) Gung Hay Fat Choy Chinese (Mandarin) Xin nian yu kuai (Scottish) Happy New Year... :-D

>Year of Goat - commence
From Feb. 1, 2003 to January 21, 2004.
Here is the prediction of various weeks:
(CeBit: March 12-19, 2003)
Prediction for Year of Goat (http://www.asiaflash.com/rao/baby_2003_list.shtml)
Perhaps in the Year of Goat, Amiga Inc will finish the Goat - Spider Silk Biotech Experiments and start knitting the Amiga T-Shirt using the new material!

I'd've thought that any scotsman worth his weight in Haggis would be too P1ssed to string together any sentence that coherent at New Year !
And its Hogmanay up there, by the way.
hello wilse ! :-D :pint:

Hi Agafaster:

Well, I did have a rather good time. :-)
I also have a haggis in the fridge. :-D
And its Hogmanay up there, by the way.
Indeed, although Hogmanay is New Year's Eve. We do still say "Happy New Year!". :pint:
-
Hehe, i`m a Pict...and a european....
I`ll say it AGAIN!...
Happy new year! :pint:

Asian1,

Hey, my oldest daughter was born in the year of the goat or lamb. She is very lucky. She has won three raffles. When she is old enought, I plan on having her pick lottery number. Come to think of it, I should try that now. ;-) Oh, btw, this thing about people born in the year of the goat/ram/lamb having bad luck is based on the idea that these people are timid and shy and don't fight back.
-
What`s the difference anyway? How "lucky" AmigaOS was recently? Can`t be much worse than that. At least it WILL be launched... right?
-
CeBit in Hanover is from March 13th-19th. That's only 4 weeks away. We'll find out then if the "launch" is on time.

Last time I looked, MorphOS still was at the state of an Embrio, when did that change?
MorphOS is not born yet!!!
