LIVE Q&A Session with Hyperion Entertainment

[unusedunused]

>wasn't Microsofts next OS pushed back another year or two regarding its release fairly recently?

Yes but there was no vacaton of 4 Jears in OS development.M$ have not say 2001.So older windows get no updates our new OS come in 6 months.Now are gone 4 years do you really think User or developer wait this long time

also see apple.They have enhance there Macos8 to PPC.It never was full native.But it was furtherdevelop and
limit the gap hold Users until the full native Macosx was here.In the first time of macosx many users have this
too much limits.No problem they can use macos8 with dualboot and dont must wait

BTW: to say something positive about OS4

There is a game duke nukem forever,compare with that OS4 is great.

But OS4 can not compare with the worsest to see if it can get sucsess.It must compare with the current availible

A garage firma dont announce for cebit in 2003 and say short before cebit that the progress of OS4 is not
far enough to show something

The message text amiga absence on cebit is in english.short german text say that amigainc hyperion Eytech
dont show anything.try a translator if you want read more.Here stand market introdution

http://www.amiga-news.de/de/news/AN-2003-03-00053-DE.html

when you look what happen currently until 2005 this sound like a joke (april joke),Maybe to sell the aone better.
But i cant believe that Hyperion and Eyetech realy dont know that in March 2003 nothing usefull from OS4
can show on cebit and a market introdution is not possible
 
If you want something to laugh read old statetments what shoulkd happen and compare what End 2005 is really here
.

But i am really intrestet what they say now ;-)

>For what it's worth, it was Amiga Inc who said OS4 would be released (several times),
>not Hyperion. Don't blame them for the screw ups that Amiga Inc made/make. (It's like blaming

Hyperion write too in the Q&A of amogaworld they are developers.So they normaly announce nothing.
They have to work on OS4 anouncemnt do their marketing Department in that case amigainc

It is very unrealistic that Ainc (they do nothing develop) not ask Hyperion if it is possible to sale something.

Now for about 1 year or so ainc tell that they are not envolved anymore in OS4,so Hyperion must do marketing
alone.See their webpage

BTW: I think Eyetech Amigainc do their Job.Eyetech build a HW 2002 that as we all know work in case for OS4
     and Linnux DMA drivers are now too out for that.
     in 2002 the specs are not so outdatatet as now end 2005.So now when sell OS4 to new User
     a new better Hardware need design or the old need produce with lower proce
 
     ainc look to make OS4 public (date of cebit)
   
Only fault was that a final OS4 was not availivble and thats fault of Hyperion.I understand that a complete
rewritten OS cant develop in 6 Months.But who tell that this must complete rewritten for the new HW.

Apple go to PPC HW with macosx8 without memprotect few native code and enhance that more and more and
introduce new API for memprotect
 
This hold the developers and Users and they have time and money to develop a new OS with memprotect.
Hyperion (Genesi) need only do same steps

>Oooooh - Terrible, isn't it?

Yes it keep developers wating instead of help or support developing on AROS or other solutins

I begin in oct 2005 with AFA OS.When there are no promises i begin with that earlier.

but when i begin with that 2003 then everyone say what should another OS support OS4 its the future.it can only take few months to final.

now years are gone,i think most have left amiga.But i like the amiga wont geive it up.See the aone Poll.There are less 140 micro aones sold.I understand that eyetech dont build the HW anymore
