I'd put it this way. AmigaOne without OS4 is practically useless. And judging by late silence from Amiga, plus Hyperion folks can't even give an estimate when it will be ready, it doesn't look too good. I have bet money (5€) that this will happen in 3/4 of 2003.
Also there are _rumours_ of A1 board being somewhat crippled and a hack. if this is true, your guess is just as good as mine.

Meanwhile there are hundreds of Pegasos' floating around used by developers. And some of them I'd call "Keypeople of community". Those developers won't necessarily never do any good for A1/OS4.

Also, while waiting for OS4 to arrive, MOS gets better and more polished every day.
OS4 looks good on paper, MOS looks good now.
AmigaOne doesn't look good on paper, Pegasos2 does. And those two items are likely to arrive just about the same time (3rd quarter 2003 as I quessed ;-)
WHEN Peg2 and A1/OS4 arrives, there's (hopefully) quite nice set of software available for MOS, when developing for A1 only *begins*.

Looking at the situation from this point of view, it's obvious who leaves the ring undefeated.

My point of view only, fuel up the flamethrowers.

@Mr.Akey and Mr.Frieden

Could you comment about my earlier post in this thread, point by point? In mature and constructive way, like I did. No need to start flaming and calling me a troller. I am interested how you look at this, being on "the other side".
Was hoping some response but seems like im being ignored  :-)

I have thought a lot about the situation past few months and I'd like to be proven wrong.

First of all, thanks to Hmetal for a (quick) answer. I'm well aware that not everything can be said (doesn't necessarily have even answers!).
When I said it's "useless" I meant in Amiga-wise.. surely you understood. This an Amiga related site and most of the people are ONLY interest in the Amiga-part of A1, not Linux.

What we can all agree on, is that the forthcoming few months will be very interesting indeed. I myself, have already ordered $299 Pegasos, but have no objection in buying A1/OS4 _IF_ it's what have been promised.
You never know, I still don't have my Pegasos. When I get it, and use it a couple of months I may find unusable and sell it on ebay to get AmigaOne.
Or I may ditch this Windows-pc for good and have Pegasos and A1 here at use. I have spent so much money in hometheatre that a couple computers equals to flyshit in desert :-)

Boy oh boy. Frieden, you truly are a loudmouth and your arrogance is beyond all this. After Akey answered my questions properly, and I thanked for it, you wasn't even obligated to answer me. But no, you just can't seem to shut up. Had to do just what I asked not to do, behave immature.

A friendly advise.. stop posting anything. You really are not good at that. Or maybe next time ask Akey some advice.

As soon as you start posting in a mature manner, I will too. Until then...  


I can not find out how to do more mature post than i did earlier.
