AmigaUpdate, Objectivity Lost.

[bloodline]

Question from AmigaUpdate:
"What was MophOS doing at Amiwest?"

My answer:
"Um... showing an Amiga Compatible product?"

-edit by redrumloa- all you MOS do is moan... humans deserve to have their own opinions, after all they are only that... human, not everyone share your view about MOS, and that don't make him less objective, or his work less noble, only show what's his way of thinking, knowing that lead with it.

And what do you think my opinion on MOS is?

[bloodline]

You are smarter then that, that isn't the main question, or at any relevance to what he has said, that is only side notes, that you pick because they are easier to...

Well, I can't see what's wrong with my opinion...

[bloodline]

If by any chance MOS makes AmigaOS colapse, I'd say F*** MOS, MOS haven't give me anything ever... AmigaOS has... There are lot's of better OSes out there, and way better then both, but they aren't picking at Amiga niche market...

Well, I agree with you that MOS hasn't given you anything, but then neither have Amiga Inc. (which is what I assume you mean by AmigaOS).

Amiga Inc. are just a company (orignally called Amino) who bought the right to use the Amiga Name. The Amiga that we knew is long gone :-(

Whould you feel the same if It was Microsoft that Bought the Amiga Brand name and not Amino?

MOS isn't Amiga, right? But MOS user do pretend to be so... If I do use UAE or any kind of WINE for AOS on top of QNX doesn't make me Amiga user, does it!? They don't diferenciate themselves they pretend to be what they can't be...

MOS is as much AmigaOS as AmigaOS4 is, since they both run old Amiga programs and have aditional features to improve the system somewhat.

They also run on almost ideantical hardware (only difference being soem interchangable firmware)

[bloodline]

AmigaOS is AMigaOS, MorphOS isn't because it doesn't share it's past... don't pretend it to be it anyother way...

What past? A common name?

I think you had better look into the technical issues you are tryign to make claims about before you make posts on a subject that many of us here have studied in great depth.

His road... that what makes AmigaOS, MOS could have been his road, but (fortunatly/sadly) it wasn't... of course if it loose all of it's previosly features, it wouldn't be the case, but since it hasn't AOS 4 is built with exec on its core so... it's the sticker! ;b

It that's your argument, then AROS is also AmigaOS, since it also has exec at it's core.

[bloodline]

Past is what made me what I am, it is very important for me... what defined Amiga was Amiga it was not MOS and never will

What you fail to understand is that everything you knew is gone.  :-o

Amiga has become nothing but a name. There is not past, no heritage. The old amiga development people have all moved on.

The Company that currently owns the Name "Amiga", have nothing to do with the Amiga's past. They have even separated themselves from it (since they don't actually own the technology, Gateway do), and what you know as an Amiga they call a "Classic Amiga".

Do not confuse Amiga Inc. with the Amiga that we knew and loved.

If next gen Amiga (Aone) had happened as announced I would most likely being using it by now. But at least for me there are more important things in my life than waiting it all happen.. If it happes someday and I then have bunch of extra cash, I'll consider it too..

Hmmm, me too, but I was let down time and time again... so I decided that I wanted to go Opensource, where I have (more) control.

Edit by Kees - personal insult

Targhan is working for Genesi, it doesn't matter how he states is opinion, he simply should not be allowed to state it at the front page. Furthermore, whoever posts his opionion to the front page, should mark it as personal opinion, not post it as an announcement.

I never knew Targhan works for Genesi... someone should update his ranking

[bloodline]

All I want is an alternative to Microsoft that feels Amiga like and to play some classic games. If it is AOS then I'll buy it, if it is MOS then I'll buy, if it is AROS then I'll buy it.

You don't have to buy AROS, it's free. A free download will always be available from my site.

-Disclaimer- As long as I can aford to run a site :-P

It's time to put aside the differences and co-operate. Criticising people for doing things wrong or incompetence is one thing, but criticising them for making a different choice (or worse, for offering a different choice) is sheer bigotry of the kind that has been ruining this community for years.

I agree, we are a community... and we should work together (RE: OpenAmiga).

I think the bigotry in this cimmunity stemps for decensions being made without consulting the community... Thus some pole feel let down, others be justified... it's sad, that this should have happend, but I hope that in the end it will make the community stronger... but only if we work together and are careful not listen to those of small minds...

Think different... Think Amiga (the Spiritual sense, not the Trade Maked one  :-D ).

[bloodline]

How can you say that "x86 has no future" and then "you are a troll if you think AROS has no future"? For starters, AROS runs on x86, but even if it didn't, your points of view are contaminating the point you are trying to make.

That's not right Mikey!
He said that you are not a troll for those things. :-)

[bloodline]

I don't give a toss to who produces an Amiga, the way it operates I do, and these way is Amiga exclusive way, made available by AmigaOS, and wich represents for me a better way of doing things and making them faster, but for me it was Amiga who introduce them, not MOS...

And tell me how MorphOS and AROS operate differently from AmigaOS?

Please stay out of technical disscusions unitl you have fully versed yourself with all the facts.
