Do you want the AmigaOne X1000 project to fail?

It's on the fail track no matter what I think. I won't deny I'm having a fun time watching it fail though!

These 15 votes that they want that AmigaONE X1000 project to fail, show us there are Amiga users that they are bad people, and well, I don't think that people are, but perhaps the same people that want new Pegasos?

I don't want a Pegasos, new or old.

But then again I didn't vote in the poll either - what I think doesn't matter.

Why dont you want a pegasos? Because it not "official amiga"?...

No, I simply have no interest in it - although if one were given to me I would definitely check it out (with MOS). As far as it not being an official Amiga, that's fine in my opinion: MOS succeeds or fails on it's own merit without the Amiga name. Same goes for AROS. Too bad OS4 isn't the same way.

I see... then, for you a SAM or x1000 is an amiga like a500 or a1200?

Absolutely not! I feel that OS4 is an Amiga-like OS, just as MOS and AROS are Amiga-like. There's nothing wrong with Amiga-like - IMO it's a tribute to the compelling nature of the Amiga that these OSes are even around. But, hardware that runs an Amiga-like OS is not an Amiga.

My disconnect with OS4 is the pilfering of the Amiga name. Not content to merely produce an Amiga-like OS, Hyperion wants to BE Amiga. But they have none of the traits that made the Amiga great, making them the very worst variety of poser.

I'm surprised you didn't know this about me.
