MAI Logic Website Disappeared

Hahaha!

There's some interesting stuff not hapenning over at Amigaworld (namely the 20 questions thing), and various other little comments about lack of feedback from companies etc.

On the plus side, I'm getting a real nostalgic feeling from this thread :-D

At least MOS seems to have got a second wind, and AROS PPC exists now, so even in the worst case scenario it won't be the end of the world ...

They have a funny reality control thing going on there sometimes :-?

Which is a shame 'cause many of the regulars are really nice guys.

EDIT: just went and had a look, 2x threads locked, 3rd just starting.

Hey Sundown, car guys have gotta stick together ;-) Have you got the June Hemmings Muscle Machines BTW?

I've read all the posts, thankyou.  Both locked threads (which you'll find I accurately reported on on the first page) were closed before running their natural course (without being out of control).

I don't think AW.net is over-moderated, it's just what moderation there is is often done in an aggresive manner.  Thats my direct experience, nothing more.

But then this thread isn't concerned with AW.net is it?  It's to do with the fact that Mai have disappeared off the face of the planet; which doesn't happen to healthy & legitimate businesses, at least not without a press release giving a good reason.

At this point, if I were an A1 owner I would be getting nervous - I'm sure that things will work out one way or another though ...

Thanks Velcro - yes AROS is very alive (and we've now got hosted PPC support!).

I was very pleasanty surprised to see the goings on over at MorphZone - the idea of a Peg 2.5 with new updated Morphos makes things look promising.

You forgot about the AHT STBs though :-D They're the driving force behind the PPC AROS work ...

Sorry, missed that reply - yes, basically if you already own an existing A1, and support for the Articia doesn't continue, there is the potential to be stuck with an unsupported machine.  Plus there will be delays due to one thing or another ...

I'm never going to be held hostage to the hardware vender ever again.

Thats a good line from a hardware vendor :-D

There's a discussion on AW.net about Acill's attempt to fund an official port of OS4 to Peg - he didn't even get a reply to his queries though.

BTW MOS no longer supports Peg 1 or classic hardware, in fact the only classic support was when it was in early development.  If AI find themselves with no desktop hardware it would make sense to either sell it whole (ie. to Hyperion or something, to then be ported) or to fund porting it to the easiest hardware to switch to - ie. pegasos.

Piru - Sorry, I was sure I had read on Morphzone that Peg Is were stuck with Mos 1.3 or something ... ho hum ...

There some broken image links on the front page too, looks like someone's just done a quick bodge job.  Is it still registered to the same ISP as before?
