AmigaOS 4.0 makes Wired News!

[Kosh]

I don't know if anyone else has noticed (I tried to look for another thread but didn't find one) but AmigaOS 4.0 made it into Wired News... however it made it into their 7th annual Vaporware awards at the #9 slot.

From the article:

9. Amiga OS 4.0 (Amiga)
Perhaps not coincidentally, Amiga also made the same No. 9 slot in last year's Vaporware Awards for failing to ship its long-promised, next-generation Amiga machines. Well, the hardware appeared but the operating system is still missing.

"After four years of promises and slipped schedules (original release date June 2001), this is still vapor in the extreme," wrote reader Nate Downes. "They have resorted to demos of a pre-alpha version running on a Mai reference motherboard, with hopes and dreams of it shipping by the end of the month. They always fail to mention which month."

No, I have no relation to the so-called K.O.S.H.  I've gone by this nickname online for 10 years now and won't let something like that make me change. I'm stubborn  ;-)

Well, hopefully my new sig clears things up  ;-)

Ugh... I'm already beginning to regret posting link to the Wired article, but I suppose if I didn't, someone else would have.  It was just my intention to bring up an Amiga mention I noticed someplace else and I hope this doesn't digress into a nasty thread.
