Why is there always this hostility towards companies releasing new Amiga software and hardware. Is it just because we are used to scams and empty promises? Or is it because of the different Amiga user 'camps' that all have their own opinion about the best way forward for Amiga? Its not that we can really afford crap like this, the market and user base is too small for that?

Sure, there is probably some truth in there but the way its written gives me the feeling the 'author' is a biased person that has had some negative personal experience with Hyperion. Whatever it is, instead of slagging off one of the last active Amiga companies we are much better off giving our support. IMHO thats the only way forward for Amiga, respect, a bit of loyalty, and some real community spirit.

How on earth can you show respect to a company like CUSA when they and their mouthpieces show no respect to the Amiga Community whatsoever... :(

Well, to be honest I wrote my comment with Hyperion in mind, not CUSA.. :) Since they havent done much so far, there isnt much to respect either. Doesnt mean they deserve all the crap that people keep saying, though.

Uh and as for Hyperion and lack of updates for OS4.. At least we *have* OS4. But I might have missed something, isnt there going to be a 4.1 release for classic anymore? :|
