In general there were many objective and positive postings. I was mainly disappointed with Seehund's comments though.

Seehund, if you want a Pegasos just buy one with MorphOS instead. If you want AmigaOS buy an AmigaOne, it's as simple as that and has always been like that during the heydays of the Amiga.

Only if Amiga Inc can come to an agreement with bPlan or Thendic we will see AmigaOS4 licensed for the Pegasos, of course they can continue to sell versions of the board without AmigaOS4, just like Eyetech will be doing.

The efforts of the AmigaOS4 team needs to be rewarded with software sales. Eyetech will sell both Linux boards and slightly more expensive AmigaOne boards including AmigaOS4. If many Linux people just decide to pirate AmigaOS4 this will be very unfair for the little market we already have.

Seehund, you are not saving AmigaOS, you are only hurting the possibility of our developers to make a profit and therefor hindering its future advancement.
