You have good points there.
However, it has to be pointed out that the obviously incorrect initial benchmark results were readily accepted as facts by many. This I believe shows the amount of unrealistic expectations some might have had of X1000.
Indeed he does. I never had any of these 'unrealistic expectations' about the X1000.
What I did know, is that this 'custom built' computer was led and funded by an enthusiast (and a very decent guy) and was everything I wanted to buy, regardless of 'value for money'. I'm sick of the money 'and what it could buy' argument.
I was a HUGE fan of MorphOS back in the day, and no 'camp' meant anything. Alas, things changed... and so did my opinion.
The X1000 is here through dedication and hard work, as is the OS that runs on it. The users that choose to use it, are here to stay. I just wish the ambience between 'choices' could be so much more amiable.
I admit to being totally put off by some of the attitudes shown around here. Nevermind.
