pagestream developers have the devkit and the knowledge on how and what , like any other developer who want to developer for os4 ,
if this is so damn hard to understand then i think they need to understand what there is in "designing new software for a plattform"

and no there is no mention of a morphos version , it does state clearly in the topic that its OS4 doesnt it?  last i checked that wasnt morphos.

getting tired of people forcing MORPHOS in every thread there is.

mikeymike:pagestream does pdf also...as an example to what it can do...

elendi: why?  sales numbers havent exactly exploded on the pegasos side since its release , people are not buying because it aint an mos only product , ie they think they support the enemy etc.

i have never had anything against them who want to release anything for a dual format, the point is this was as it say in the topic Amiga Os4 release/offer , and not an morphos offer .

and to all who has missed why it doesnt say morphos well i think u either should have an email in your box or none at all , if its none then it just show's how little you really wanted it.

(the pagestream poll that was held some time ago, i voted for the one i knew i would buy and now i got the email and i just click'd on the "BUY" option..easy as that)

and now the final thing , do we know why all of this happened ? , sure we do .. lets go back 2 years in the past then we would remeber stuff like Rage hard - mos only , companies going mos only etc and its still going on, so dont come around and say we didnt do it.

anyway i have no reason to belive this will be an amiga only product as its allready linux,mac,pc so all that will matter atm is actual numbers and all who voted will have to pay up, ie it wont just be another anon poll.  or maybe not?

an example of how i think of all of this, i bought knights and merchants and i bought birdie shoot mac version, why? well i am an amiga user and not an pegasos user but i know its worth buying even if i can't use it, but i belive strongly that there will be an amiga version of em, and for the birdie shoot, well thats going into my mol install eventually..

even if there will come an special amiga version of it, sure i wont hesitate on buying it.

the thing is, i dont find it as EVIL WARE! , i buy if its good/worth it and most of all to support the godamn last developers there is in the amiga/pegasos world.

so i personally should advice all to follow that or just start to move on, as it wont last long with the current sales on any of our beloved platforms (and then i aint talking about the hw)

cheers and goodluck.


pps:i know that you are aware of that i am an developer , and this is not on behalf of the company ...its my humble opinon!.
also, i aint saying buy aos4 pagestream f you are an mos user, incase if thats what i led u to belive..

brian: well i once tried it on a 040 25 and thats when i felt it was quirky and annoyingly slow, but since i have been using it with 060 and all the plugs and views was ppc, well i havent noticed it beeing slow , though i agree you with an ppc version but still 060 and 040 are very diffrent in how they work and how fast it actually is , infact standard a1200(with no fastmem) to 030 (8mb) jump was by no means as clear and suprising as from 030 to 060!
and i guess you are aware of that 040 needs special exe + optimization to be able to be faster than a 030 50mzh, though 040 40mzh is a diff story.

oh well..bring it on! i am certainly looking forward to this powerapp!

cheers

@ takemehomegrandma :

i was'nt attacking you i was just pointing out why it doesnt say mos in this news item , and as you allready should know , there is a seperate vote/poll for that system/os, and obviously not enough has regged there yet (unless you got an email from them today).

there is no point in dooing software if a simple thing as a poll wont work...or ?

that was the only thing i was pointing out and as i wrote abit later in the other posts, i am pretty confident that they will support mos if there is a REAL number of people who is interested in buying it and as you might remeber from the poll is that it asked for the non upgrade option aswell as upgrade (the key was needed if you wanted upgrade).

for all means let em do an aros version if they want to but dont expect em to do so unless there is people wanting to buy it.

there has been enough rubbish polls/votes lately and that i think you are pretty aware of , anyway lets wait and see and lets see if grasshopper llc really will suppport a growing market or wait.


anyway they havent posted any info about mos here and the poll's are stll ongoing (for both systems) .

sorry if i attacked you , but i didnt ..it was just that its an Aos4 thread and the word mos had to be pulled into it and that is getting very annoying when os4 aint tolerated in mos threads.

And I second to that bashing MorphOS on every opportunity just because you don't like it (even if some/many users of it act rather annoyingly at times) is rather pointless, it won't make anything better. Even if I can understand how you feel: just try to be better than they are.


i agree to this , but getting overrun by people who claim stuff and tries to invade "allready spoken for" software or news items etc) is getting really tedious , if its an mos product and we on the other side screams then its slaughtered down at first glance , that you know as well as i do.

basically i only referred to the actual news item, and the info they gave me about it.

anyway as a final note here would be that i really doubt things will get any better even after os4 is released, there will be the same nitpicking from the crowd as it is now.

both sides is correct but the people might not fit in either of the sides.

the Community , what community?  ah the one that's in constant turmoil.
