Hono_DK in case ya havent been paying attention Amiga.inc has 'about a hundred dollars' in the bank and Genesi just announced Peg2 specs on IBM.com.

Amiga.inc has been playing games here, I think Genesi wouldnt mind OS4 on Pegasos! (anyone recall the public offers bbrv has made to send a Peg to Hyperion?) but Amiga.inc et al dont want to see that, their having to much fun with MS style roms and whatnot over on the A1.

(the above is strictly my opinon of course, and isnt meant to be litteral, just OPINON :)

@Alkemyst

Though it may be true people do have some legitimate non-zealot reason for chosing OS4, when those same people

praise Amiga.inc

make excuses for Amiga.inc

claim OS4 is more 'offical'

ignore the truth (typically while blaming RWoods for the whole mess)

and sit and claim 'morphos is bad because blah blah blah "

Then you have people who slam MOS just because its not *Amiga*, had Amiga.inc created it MOS and Pegasos, those same people would be buying it most likely.

If you have a legitimate 'technical' qualm with MOS, then by all means...say it... but claiming 'it hurts Amiga.inc' or 'genesi are baddies' or whatever rhetoric you chose  dosent cut it, and when ya do it? your showing yourself to be a name follower.

(not YOU litterly Alkemyst, you as in any given person)

@Rogue

I agree with bloodline, why is it that they need to a license to allow your OS to run on their hardware???, does Microsoft have to grant Asus a license? I mean come on, there are realistically two board for AOS4 right now, the Pegasos and the A1 both are pretty similer wouldnt you (Hyperion) make MORE money off of having your OS on more then one system?. I view you guys as victims here too, because you wont be selling AOS4 to people like me who have chosen the Pegasos route.

I mean you Rogue (I think your one of the Fridens? or am I wrong) worked very hard on a product, you dont want it pirated (I can understand this) but why not want it sold to as many people as possible??, now the Peg2 is coming along I hope it stirs you guys up into getting OS4 onto pegasos! :)

Rogue basically what your saying is that I'm right to think that Hyperion isnt the barrier between AOS4 on Pegasos or not?, do you think if Amiga.inc went under AOS4 would find its way onto Pegasos?...

Rogue

to me you seem like an OK guy caught up in a tangled web of sh*t, I'd like to see your OS make its way onto Pegasos but I dont know if that will ever happen and to be honest about the license questions? I dont think you answered very much (not your fault)

a license isnt bad per-se, but this license isnt public information we call look at, its murkey waters... not clear to anyone what the license stipulates and with Amiga.inc's past history? I wouldnt trust it.

the rom wont stop anything and they KNOW it wont, thats why I view it more as a control mechanism for legitimate distrobution then as a way to keep pirates at bay, think about it! has there EVER been any dongle that HASNT been broken?, I mean dongled by very rich companies, copy protection that MICROSOFT works on with all their billions, and the recording industry... dongles dont work, they are there more as a way to control the legitimate side of things than anything else.

I personally probably would not buy OS4, but I dont think its a bad idea to have it on Pegasos, people act as though pegasos is such a renegade, OS4 on Peg might serv to re-unite the community somewhat?.
