Is Hyperion the new Amiga Inc.?

Declaring the competing projects illegal is a curious way to gather community spirit.

and



CUSA is receiving similar threats now. Sounds like a typical MO for Hyperion.

So sorry but I can't feel warn & fuzzy about Hyperion.

gee am agreeing with you l got say pretty dispointing what am reading of late
just when seriously thinking buying a sam 460 too
l guess l take my chances with the shark inclosure rather  than lawers offfice

It was posted in court documents so it is real Mr. Evert quote (his Sep 25 2005 reply to Bill McEwen of Amiga Inc). While it may suggest some strain in some relations (irrelevant) it does quite explicitly point out that Hyperion considers AROS illegal.


If they fail to see that then there's little I can do to help them.

gee twice in one day next be sending you xmas card

yes well before the legal action amiga os 4 chould been techincally untill tested

been not fully legal so seems bit rich hyperion saying aros is illegal

and its the spirt of the thing apart from lawers all the care about is money and

complicating things to make more money.

if you have decent people coding for right reasons surley they can work toghter for same

goal moving the amiga platform forward

just like ford and gm if ford makes cool model it improve the breed and make people

intrested in buying cars helps everone, l mean people talk amiga being hobby computer
which is true but yeah , all computers are hobby for me becuase l dont use them
for work or make money from them anyway

so am sure there good people in all groups working on amiga projects just love to
see some common sence and less fighting

No one beats the AI humor machine
 
"OS5 is better than OSX".
 
"On schedule and rocken"
 
"AmigaDE on 100's of millions of devices"

To be honest I have to say Hyperion is doing bad job there. After ten years of development Hyperion still havent deliveded any finished product. Their OS is constantly in beta and their versioning is complete mess. They have got different versions of 4.1 with various patch levels which change from platform to platform. There is no any sign of professionalism and all they got is wannabe Belgian lawyer trashing Amiga community including AROS.

While Amiga Inc was bad making business they had some professionalism in their software development.

Yes but to be fair they have never said there company has had massive base of
employees , seems to me and not having any idea they had handfull full time staff
and alot of helpers. but they have delivered a working os .
and for amount people dont there best. look how many people work on mac and windows
and they still have patchs and updates galore.
and even some real crap releases windows me vista etc
I just think people getting bit frustrated with lack information from them
Athough tended to keep things till ready to release them unlike amiga inc talked everthing up
