You forgot to mention conspirisits!!
There are those of us who believe that all of the above you have mentioned was done to smash the community, un-hearten us and finaly burry the AMIGA and all possible roads for a future.
This goes back to ATARI/Commodore days. When the IBM PC and clones were saying "If a computer has any more than 16 colours, it must be a games machine"
Well we had colours, DMA sound, plug and play, multitasking and more.
It was a dangerouse machine then and still is now even though the PC world has not only colours but 3d Graphics and 8.1 Channel sound, multitasking etc...the philosophy behind the AMIGA stays. Perhaps some companies out there just don't want to see it survive and intend to break spirits that have held the AMIGA together even into divided sides right into 2005.
The community is not dead, just waiting as usual. Waiting for someone with enough guts, vision and money to do something. KMOS may just be that company and if so, there is still a chance for a very powerful "lifestyle" to once again bring the computer/technology scene forward to a new era.
I think that as long as we stay true to what we believe in, and to me that was the platform AMIGA and it's community I don't see why the common goal can't become a reality.
Seriously, if there is a demand, there will be substance.
Weather it be accelerator cards for classic hardware or new hardware, it's obvious that there are people who want AMIGA's technology and prefer the OS's feel and ability above others that are on offer.
