So is the slovenian show the first public appearance, and if yes will Hyperion be at the show? I think this is important.



Read the English verion of the Slovenian show and it shows "With: Hyperion Entertainment, Amiga Inc."

But I know what you mean...It would be nice to hear it from Hyperion themselves.

I'm a bit surprised by the response, or better the lack of response from the Amiga community.


I am too, really.  But I think most are either
1) hesitant to get too excited "yet once more for nothing"
or
2) are reserving comments until something is actually shown, since we've has so many failed hopes in the past.

I fall somewhere in those catagories.... While I'll be the first to cheer when it is shown fully running, I'll also wait cautiously until that time.  We've speculated too much over the years....it's time to wait until you see the product... (although, I'll admit to the excitement building in anticipation)

as you work for the competition, i won't even bother replying to your 'neutral' post.

By the way, if their market is dying, so is yours. It's the same.


Agreed.  And they've already effectively sold over 1000 copies to those who paid the Club Amiga membership.  That doesn't even begin to touch on the ones who want OS4 but were not willing to join the club.  OS4 does not have a shrinking market, no matter how much they would like you to believe it (ever heard the term "grasping at straws"?).

 Even many of those who have bought a Pegasos still express wanting it ported, and others say they will buy both.  In the end, I think OS4 will grow beyond expectations.
