oh boy is this ever pathetic.....Would like to hear Hyperions side of this!  In the end whats point of fighting here?  a $25000 os?  it's a joke...   A-inc should just fold and release this all to open source. just pathetic.... In the end NOBODY will make enough money to speak of.

what ever... how much is %10 of nothing?  Ever try to reach in a naked mans pocket?  With all this mucking about I think is important to understand the stakes involved here... we are not talking about any damages as there is very little money to made by anybody...... all amiga inc has to do is relese the thing to open source, then fold like a good boy. That way even hyperion ends up with empty hands.... come on thos guys where just waiting for a-inc to fold so they could steal the amiga......lameness on all ends!

It's not so bad, we have the largest vintage computer community and some of the best emulators. Heck with have aros and amigathlon.  What does the ST cimmunity have?  or the sinclare peopel?  nothing!  the fact that we are even THINKING of producing new hardware is crazy!  There is nothing to run on this OS4 anyway, the amiga hayday is over.  We have so much cool old software to run on owr classic computer what more could we want?

hmmm I guess, though amigathon still runs great on my box and a bought it while it was available (it still gets updates!) I don't think it illeagal!  I paid to run it, but I get your point.
I did not know of any ST clones but would be intereted.  I figure there are some emulators out there but uae is very good!  Also I still think there is a greate retro amiga scene out there.  Things get realy crazy every time Mr. McEwen attempsts to cash in on his funky internet company.

why do you feel that it matters what happens to os4?  It's not the only option.  Whats so great about os4?
