On it's way ?

How can it be on it's way, when they haven't decided on the design yet ?

How would Nicalas Sallin put that ?

"I tell you : NO t-shirt before october !!"  :-P  :-P

I was just pointing out that the title of this news-item was clearly
misleading, or do you prefer positive but false "news" ?

And when I thought of that it kinda remided me of Nicolas and his
"no OS4 on the CS-PPC before September"-posts in this spring, which
even I thought as trolling back than (but still he will be right).

Can't stand a little (mean) humor ? Grow some thicker skin !

I never post anything constructive ?

Just look up some "help-related" threads !

The problem is that a vast majority of the "positive" news are
so extremly biased and poor-worded, that they don't reflect reality.

Yes I would like a "rebirth" of the platform, but celebrating a
t-shirt-design contest, or babbling about vapor CPUs (which won't
hit anything "Amiga" in the next 2 years) won't help.

Believe me, I'm allready having my fun :-D  :-D

There are basiclly 3 ways to react on all these "news":

1. Believe them all (even those that contradict eachother). Makes you a BAF.

2. Be sceptical, but still take them serious. Lead to frustation and
probrally even a heart attack. I don't need that.

3. Don't take them to serious and have a good laugh. The whole
A1-demand-gauge / lootery / club / free t-shirt / lifetime / anual
membership / design-contest" has allready provided me with lots of
fun, and I expect to have much more before anybody get his money back.

You are absolutly right about the impossiblity of a real rebirth,
and I've come to that conclusion years ago. Nowadays I see it
as just another hobby just like collecting stamps, or buildin
modells.

So if you see anothor Kronos-post that doesn't include any
technical questions/facts, you should try to view theam as a
joke. Can you laugh about all the mean things the Monty-Phytons
did back then ? If yes, you shoul also be able to do the same
about my jokes (not saying that they would have the same quality).

"rewritten article ...."

This is how it should have been worded from the beginning to
make A.org look like a REAL news-site instead of a fan-club.
