Opera for Amiga project

[Kronos]

Oh no, don't the fools ever learn .......

Opera is a commercial title, and as such it is closed source.

They have alleady burned themselves on the Amiga once, and don't
expect them to change their minds for a 4digit number of potential users
(and thats allready optimistic).

What are you planning ? Bombarding them with with emails and petitions ?
Yeah thats gonna help them.



Help them come to the conclusion that the Amiga-community is a bunch
of lunatics, to be avoided at any cost.  :-x


Want Opera on Amiga (and related)?

Sell atleast 100000 new machines, or be prepared to spend a 7-digit amount
of $, and they might be prepared to talk to you  :-o

No it a "failure to realize" by the people who avtually think that fan-post and
"showing OS4" will be enough for Opera to overlook the (lack of) commercial
value of this community/platform.

"solid user-group"  :roflmao:  :roflmao:

Sorry, but all Amiga has is a few 1000 zealots (in all colors ;-)  ) whinning
how great the past was, and spinning unrealistic future plans.

And as I said, approaching Opera without a (finacial) viable plan won't do more
than them having a good laugh. Approacing them with Amidelfs view on reality
(like his claim of millions of Amigas still in use) will do more harm than good,
and may destroy any hope to get the browser ported once (if) one (or all) of the
next-gen Amiga-solution becomes finacial viable.

Bout the whinning. I tell you what, if I'm sick and tired of one thing in this community
than it is the constant whinning "why doesn't port someone this and that" (often
stuff that isn't opensource, or consist of >100 MB source) by people who couldn't
compile anything beyond "hello world".

I did waste my time once for such a futile attempt (OpenOffice), and have learned
my lesson. Now I concentrate on one single project, a project that I can do on my
own, and even within this millenium  :-o

@PPCRulez
I somehow doubt that Hyperion would have enough time for such a port,
and I also doubt that 50$/per copy would be enough to cover the licence-cost.


It is much to early for such projects.
