It's because these compatible PPC Macs can be bought at a fraction of the price of a custom built "amiga" hardware. Say 200 € instead of 1000+ € for a complete system.


Please don't omit very important parts in your statement. These compatible PPC Macs can be bought second hand at a fraction of the price of a custom built "amiga" hardware. Say 200 € instead of 1000+ € for a complete system.

You can buy designer's clothes for pennies at a thrift shop, that cost hundred of dollars in the mall. You can buy used Mac very cheap as well. If you are into that kind of stuff.

I bet no OS4 user has ever sold their old system or bought a 2nd hand system. I mean everyone just trash their old AmigaOnes and SAMs, since they're obviously worthless... as they're no longer new.

Really, you're starting to sound like a broken record here.


And you sound like a person who places the facts around what he wants to prove and skips the rest.
It was obvious that you compared the price to a second hand system to a brand new one. I made a fair comparison with the clothes from thrift shop and a designers shop. Then you continue with personal insults.

If you make such statements about 100 Euro versus 1000 Euro, please state that the 100 Euro are for second hand hardware, while the 1000 Euro are for new. It have nothing to do if AmigaOS users buy or not second hand hardware.

But you compare hardware scrap with hardware produced in the recent years that have some additional taxes attached to it like RoHS tax, money denominations, etc... I have no problems with your agenda, but the persons who don't know much like Franko will happen to believe your fallacies.

So you know where goes the MorphOS´s money that comes from the registrations?



I quoted main MorphOS dev that no money from registrations come to him and where they go. If he is telling the truth, then I know.

I used his answer to explain why there will be no new hardware for MorphOS.
