Before you post messages at least read the FAQs
Here is an example of a FAQ for those that didn`t read them...

--
Q: "I'm a Linux/BSD/whatever POP/PPC user. Why should I care about Amiga Inc. killing off their product and screwing AmigaOS users?"

A: Because AmigaOS users, no matter how few, still could be an addition to a common POP hardware market if they only were allowed to. With Amiga Inc.'s policies they'd have to be a separate market for no technical reason. A unified market means more users, which in turn increases the probability of seeing faster development, cheaper hardware and more hardware options. Many ex-AmigaOS users fondly remember AmigaOS, so the POP market could become a viable and attractive alternative for those users if the artificial obstacles were removed. You might even be interested in buying AmigaOS and try it out for yourself, but with the announced policies you'd have to buy new hardware with AmigaOS bundled to get a chance. Any open PPC hardware project would also benefit from a more reasonable distribution policy for AmigaOS.

Free the  POP market, we will be the ones to win something from this case as customers if they change their policy.

Amiga DIEHARD!
