It's interesting to see the opinion of soemone outside Amigaland, even if they are a bit narrow-minded in their approach. The most annoying thing I felt was them missing the point of the project when they effectively suggest Genesi should concentrate their efforts on making a Linux Box and forget MorphOS.
Rant... Why is everyone so obsessed with Linux - I don't see what's so great about it, other than its "free". Linux is complicated, dull, and looks and feels much like Windows. I'd rather use Windows than Linux.
Something I feel needs to be addressed is the "it's just for geeks" tone of the review, hopefully that isn't what either the MorphOS or AmigaOS teams are aiming for. I never felt Amiga was a geeky platform and I hope it doesn't go that way - I think its safe to say most computer users aren't 'geeks', i.e. they're drivers, not mechanics. If you build an OS to appeal to souly to 'geeks' you're never going to reach the level of market penetration and 'greatness' Windows has (think Amiga users want this), no chance.
Hopefully the AmigaOS team (and MorphOS of course) have taken note of this review - their clearly are lessons to be learnt.
