For me, my problem with MorphOS users pushing their OS isn't the way it's done, it's the timing.
In a hypothetical thread, for instance, entitled "I want an AmigaOS system and don't know what to buy!", a reasoned discussion of the MOS/AOS/AROS options is welcome.
In another hypothetical thread which may be entitled "New AmigaOne 500 released", going on about how it's overpriced and how MOS is better and yada yada yada is not welcome. If you don't like AOS 4 - fine, but don't bother us with your yelling, keep it to a thread that's about MOS.
Inidentally, I'm not hiding in any shell, despite being primarily an AOS user. I also occasionally use and develop for MOS and AROS too. I just find AOS is the best for me.

And if you feel sorry for me for spending money on brand new hardware for my hobby - don't. I'm not three years old, I know what I'm buying!


I think this is fair comment.

At some stage I will be buying an OS4 capable machine, sadly I literally have no space for it at present.

Once I have a permanent home sorted out it will be one of the first things I buy.  Having said that, if an OS4 laptop was on the market, I'd buy it today.

I too find it amusing that so many people try to "warn" potential buyers of OS4 machines of the limitations.  I'm pretty sure all these limitations have been weighed up before the decision to buy.
