I remember alot of people jumping for joy when commodore went under.....and look where that brought us.

These kinds of threads do nothing but harm the comunity.More people get turned away from amiga, which means less sale for eyetech and Genesi(even if genesi do not have a product for sale at this time) and less sales for hyperion which in turn leads to less developers, less applications.

I am personally disgusted by the lot of it, both Genesi and Amiga Inc.Both of these parties have provided poor examples of integrity and behaviour, and certain behaviors in both camps do nothing but tarnish the already rusty image that the amiga community provides to the rest of the world.The rest of the world that we need to bring amiga back from the edge of the grave.

We can see the truth of this by Bodie rethinking his decision to buy amiga.What is a someone newly interested in the amiga going to think?


Yep lucky that ppl did not pick on the original amiga ppl when they were strapped for cash before CBM came in, as then there would of been no amiga at all.

No one here is doing anything to make things better,its just making us look stupid bunch of back stabbing gits to the world as soon as things dont go as we like.

We know amiga.inc is cash strapped. The rest of the world knows as well.

You should not pick on someone for being skint, ether you help them out or you keep out of it, as kicking them when their down has never helped anyone ever as all your doing as adding to the problem.

Thats why i stay Quiet on the Subject most of the time.

Aw, hell! Let's all preorder products from upstart companies! Once people realize Amigans are all suckers, investors should dive right in!


No where in my post did i sugguest to preorder anything.

IS Insulting All amiga users the only way you know to get your view across.

There's something called, "proof of concept", and that's how you earn funding for future projects. If you can't get money because nobody is interested in your concept, then that's your fault.

No, I don't think all companies fail because they are morons. Some people get lucky and others are not. But selling coupons as a fundraiser is not the answer.

Suckers!


Who is that aimed at ?

It's a pretty untrue accusation. But most of us work for the community and not Amiga Inc's sake, that is true. IMHO they called for it: they splitted then alienated the bigger of the community, and now you expect that part of the community to rush and help out your favourite vapour company? I'd say no way.


Its Pretty untrue to you maybe but not to me or others that i know.

Bigger part you must be jokeing. and where did the other half spilt too.

Where did i say that amiga.inc is my avourite vapour company.

Stop putting words into my mouth.

Just because i say i dopnt like apples that does not mean that im saying i like oranges.

Not likeing one does not mean you must like the other.

They are on their own. If they deliver products, keep their words and PROVE to be honest then the community will help them too.

Helping and praising the Inc, whatever happens, whatever it does, lies, promises, ignores is not a god given duty of the community in all circumstances as you insist.


I Agree, but not with me insisting that ppl should help & support amiga.inc.
I never said that.

What i am insisting on if you dont want to support amiga.inc for what ever reason then dont.But that dont mean you have to attack them as much as you can either.

There are  3 choices in 1)Support 2)Obstain 3)Against

Im at 2) i have not supported Amiga.inc in anyway nore any other Amiga IP owner in the past. but that does not mean i have to be against them.

Fare to many of you will not allow ppl to be at 2)

If your not against amiga.inc them you must be for them. WRONG.

I  just dont feel the need to waste time on them either way,let them sort out there own mess.

But no most of you cant live with that you have to try to make  things harder for them by making a bigger mess all over the forums.

So say you want them to sort them selfs out then if you do just that leave them to it.


I bought amigaos3.9 because i wanted Amigaos3.9 i would not ever buy anything that i did not want just to help out Amiga.inc.
