AmigaOS 4.1 Update 4 News

[raddude9]

A new version of any flavour of Amiga operating systems is always very good and welcome news.
The constant trolling by various members whenever AmigaOS is mentioned just makes me sad though. But maybe that's what they want, to drive people away. If they can't have the Amiga legacy to themselves then nobody can have it!

When will they understand that this helps nobody.

And cut the "this is constructive criticism" BS. It's not. Bringing up the same point multiple times in the same thread, and then on every thread you can find is not helpful.

If there is a few issues in a new OS release, don't blow it out of all proportion, and then don't whinge even more when there is a new release which will fix the couple of bugs that you were whinging about in the first place.

@ the usual cry-babies

OK, before continuing this moaning about my presence in this thread, go back and read from the beginning what I have actually written:

In this thread *I have* expressed "positiveness" towards the fact that they are trying to fix the OS4.1.3 mess (which is an established fact, not some evil "takemehomegrandma propaganda", the very existence of this "news item" is proof to the pudding) with a new bugfix release. This *is* a good thing, nowhere did I say otherwise (if you feel I did, please point me to that post)!

I have also tried highlight the benefits of ISO-style releases, and trying to correct some (obviously) common misconceptions regarding possibility of having an update option in ISO's. I'm far, far from the only one preferring this, you see many OS4 fans on this site and on other sites expressing the very same opinions.

That's about it! And this has caused you (the "usual suspects") to double the thread's length with meta-comments about my evilness. Sigh.

Give me a reason to cheer, and I'll cheer, but I'll also call cr@p when I see it. The advent of an unexpected and unplanned OS4.1.4 bugfix release in between OS4.1.3 and OS4.2.0 *is* a good thing for OS4 fans, like I said in this thread. OS4.1.3 clearly wasn't, and propaganda from the "there are no bugs in the Articia S" zealots won't change that fact. Deal with it!

I'll bite.

You say you expressed positiveness! You called the 4.1.3 release "Catastrophic" when it clearly wasn't. You also say that 4.1.3 being a "mess" is an established fact, when it's not a fact, it's just your own very biased opinion. You also blow out of proportion that some users have had problems, but you fail to recognise that most of the issues were sorted out. And you keep harping on about how you don't like the AmigaOS4 install procedure, we know already, give it a rest. Then you get in with snidey remarks about how you think amigaOs4 has not reached it's 1.0 level and how it is of poor quality.

Your definition of positive is not the same as mine.

This biased trolling is hurting what remains of the Amiga platform. Please stop it.
