OS4 Release Questions...

I understand that ideally the OS will run best on new hardware but from what I understand it runs great on the thousands of PPC enabled classic machines.

There are less than 1.000 PowerUP User left.

Not to be too much of a smartass but seriously are those numbers a guess or based on fact somehow.

There is a PowerUP registration running since Dec 2005 and the numbers are far away from 1000 so dont expect more.

Just because only 1000 people answered doesn't mean there's only 1000 boards/users left. My father has 2 boards that he hasn't registered. There have to be other users out there who haven't heard of the survey or just aren't filling it out. Plus it's only been going 2 months. If you want accurate survey data, that's not enough time, especially for one that users need to discover on their own.

And? Do you think even if 1000 users were left that all will buy OS4? Will your dad buy 2 copies because he has 2 cards? He was also talking of thousands. If there are thousands of users left were have they all gone? Why does the software sell doing that bad? Well, we will see if there are much more users outthere in 4 months. I doubt that. The amiga market is very tiny these days.

I've not registered yet, as I've no had time to pop the bottom off my miggy and look at the S/N

You can at last get the serial of the BPPC/CSPPC with Scout or WhichAmiga output.
