Amiga, Inc: Close That Open Hardware!

No, my dear Alkemyst. The petition is not boycotting
anything.
I singed it and I plan to buy OS4. I will not buy the
AmigaONE for my own reasons (it's not a platform I
like).
It doesn't state ANYWHERE in the petition that we
should boycott anything. The petition is collecting
signatures to send to Amiga Inc.

Please read my post again & you will see that i do not state ANYWHERE that the petition says boycott or that the petition is boycott.

What i find funny is that Most ppl knew about the license  &
That the Pegasos did not have a license for Aos4. But they bought it anyway.
And now they are moaning at Amiga.inc/Hperion for Aos4 support on it.

There maybe another silly bunch who may buy a barbie if it ever comes out.
Even tho they have been told NO AOS4 for that board.
And yet will come moaning at Amiga.inc/Hyperion for Aos4 support on it.
 

This is exactly what Hyperion has been saying to why you buy authed Hardware or go with out.

10 or so PPC mobos may come out & emails comming from all over the place from ppl who want Aos4 on the mobo they just bought,
with out Hyperion know how many copies they are likley to shift for that mobo & would it be worth the expence & effort.
 
With out the docs cos that firm did not want to give out its PPC mobo secrets to such  a small player. We have seen this already with a make of PCI bussboard & a well known gfx card maker.

I doubt that many here would want to play HALO, but would get a PS2
& then harass M$ for Halo for PS2 cos they didnt like the XBox hardware.
Either you buy the Hardware you dont want & play the Game you  do want or you Buy the hardware yo do want & go with out the Game you want.
This sort of thing happends alot.

You rarely get your cake & eat it.

But i see cos Amiga.inc/Hyperion are seen as small players so you think it gives you the right to harass & demand everything that you want from them like a bunch of bullies.

You made your choice so now live with it.

@Kronos that your fault for rushing out  on what you bought so early on.
And now that we know that you wont touch Aos4/Aone, there is no need for you to worry about it anymore.

[Alkemyst]

@Kronos still you made your choice now live with it.

I also don't worry bout anything, I just can't stand it when people try to
blame Genesi for something decided by AInc/Hyperion.

It takes 2 to tango.

Its Genesi's fault for deciding not to apply for a license.

But the point stands: Hyperion is loosing potential buyers for their OS
every day Genesi sells one board, and they will loose alot more before
they even have somthing to sell.

Dont worry your self about it OK .
You & others have gotten what you payed for so be happy & stop worrying about Aos4 & the Aone.

I didn't blame you about anything. I just believe that
liking AOne+OS4 doesn't mean that you should
worship Amiga Inc as well. Yes, I do like Peg and
MOS and I will buy that combo. On the other hand
I will also buy OS4.

Most ppl who want Aone/Aos4 dont.
You just asume they do.

And even if they did SO Frigging what.
PPL are free to worship what they like as long as no harm comes from it.

Some ppl worship Genesi
Some ppl worship Amiga.inc
Some ppl worship Eyetech
some ppl worship Hyperion
some ppl worship God
Some ppl worship ect......

All have their ouwn reason for doing so & none have to justify to you for doing so.
You may ask tho.But dont go on & on & on about why why why all the time.
As you ill start to sound just as bad as them.

As long as no one tries to force you to worship something that you dont want to then there is no reason to get upset about it.

[Alkemyst]

I'm upset cause some people reply (no, not helgis) as if I killed their mother every time I say anything
bad about Amiga Inc. Amiga Inc doesn't deserve to be worshiped. Anyway, I don't worship anybody and
I think that worshiping any company is just stupid.

I see the same happen from the other side when ppl say anything bad about Genesi.
So live with it.

I didn't see anyone doing like THAT.
BTW, you seem to think that there are only 2 camps.
You classify anyone against Amiga Inc as a MorphOS
user. Since when cheesegrate and Dammy are MorphOS users?

I Dont remember saying anyone whos against Amiga.inc is a MOS supporter.

Pls point me to where i said that.

Or is that once again something you made up in your own mind again.

And that fact you dont see the other side is your bias.

You was in the plural number.

And about not seeing the other side... I was in that
side for A LONG time... I know what happens and
that's why I'm not an A Inc fanatic anymore. Yes, I
was at some time. I support the Pegasos and
MorphOS and I'll support OS4 but I'll never support
Amiga Inc again.

Plural does not mean everyone. Everyone means everyone. you need to touch up on your understanding of English.
Other side does not mean plural either, cos the other side could be just one person.

There are 2 teams in a foot ball match 1 English the other German.
It does not mean that all other sides are German teams does it.

[Alkemyst]

In the specific case it is NOT one person. It's a whole
bunch. You meant the whole bunch. You could very
well be "you people".
It's right grammatically, but my mistake is not that not everybody does this.
Sorry about that, it's my mistake./

Yes a Whole bunch of PPL does not include everyone.
