Are we going to get 20 questions ever again with Amiga.com?

Interestingly, I just got an e-mail from Bill suggesting that he's "ready to do another 20 questions any time we are".

So, if there is interest, let me know and we'll fire away.

Ok:
- When will Amiga OS4 and new hardware to run it on be available?
- What hardware will be available for Amiga OS4?

Ok Hans, let me answer your questions.

We want to see OS 4 ship, but by the time we get everything worked out you may be running version 5. ...

Nice cut and paste job from his last response to 20 questions. However, an answer like that just isn't going to cut it this time. We need more concrete answers.

Well, my understanding is that this time Bill McEwen contacted Wayne to tell him he was ready for another 20 questions, instead of the other way round. If he bothers to read these forums (and he'd be wise to do so), he should know what people think of Amiga Inc.

Or if nothing else, if they'd consider selling their stake in OS4 so they can concentrate on their Anywhere games without any further distractions from us.

That would be great, but it requires McEwen convincing Amiga Inc's investors. Good luck.

If the Amiga OS market is as dead as claimed, why would they need any convincing? If there's no viable market for it then they're not going to make money off that IP unless they find some "sucker" willing to buy it off them. Makes sound business sense to me.

If, on the other hand, they think that there still is a market, or that one can be created; then hoplding on to it makes sense.
