"See, this is the kind of thing that just keeps coming from the MOS supporters"

Yes AmigaOS supporters only tell truth while MOS one are always lying.

"I have no problems with people who want to use MOS, but stop trying to convince the rest of us that it is the next Amiga.... It simply is NOT. I don't care how "Amiga-Ish" it is, or how much in "spirit" it is. "

LOL Basically you say: Don't try to convince me something because I'am just trying to convince the exactely opposing thing.

However I'am sure you never tried a Pegasos while some of the people that are writing here write from their Pegasos.

Maybe some of us really care how Amiga it is.  :-D

Does it hurt so much that MorphOS may be the AmigaOS PPC some people always wanted ?
If it is not your taste (and I guess you had no chance to try it, so it is obvious you are biased just because MorphOS is not called AmigaOS) then don't buy it but do not try to stop the people that are happy to share their MorphOS experience with others.

And about original code, each vesion of Amiga OS lost more and more of the original code.
The PPC port changes the heart of the OS you know.
So you should go back to OS 1.1 and shout out loud as soon as someone is using something newer. ;-)

Both AmigaOS4 and MorphOS ABOX tries to be as close as the original AmigaOS concepts. That's why more and more people like MorphOS  :-D

MorphOS is so far the closest AmigaOS system we ever had on recent HW.
Why should we ignore it ? Just because mister herewegoagain do not like that Amiga themselves have not been able to do such a OS as for now ?

Don't misunderstand me I'am not a blind MOS fan. I never said anything negative about OS4.
I will run OS4 as soon as it is available but why should I ignore MorphOS when

- I run MorphOS everyday on my Amiga
- I run all my Amiga apps with it
- It is done by the Amiga people that provided the first 68060, UWSCSI, PPC, RTG and other stuff to the Amiga

Do you cry out loud when someone is using an Amiga emulator is posting here ?
Do you cry out when there is an AROS post here ?

BOTH sides has blind followers but you can not ask the people to shut up when they want to to share their experience.

"Exactly the kind of comment I would expect from a MOS fanatic."

Truth hurts ;) I'am so MOS fanatic that I'am gona get OS4 as soon as it is released.
Oh and I never criticized OS4 in any way, I just criticized that the release date were obviously wrong (and that was a long time ago).

"Making posts of "News Items" that make it sound like you have control over Amiga's IP is not sharing an experience. It is complete and deliberate stirring of trouble. "

well first I thought you were complaining about users posting here in general, not this particular post.

So who made this post ? Did it come from Thendic themselve ?

It was posted by a user as this information was given by Bill Buck in a previous thread comment.
It was not posted b Bill buck as a new item.
It is not really news as such agreement was done way back and discussed on Amiganews.de

Now it looks that the partners that became competitiors do not agree anymore on the terms of the contract.  :-?

I puchased a lot of things from RS and if I did not I would not have been an amigan anymore since 1994.
I guess that I'am not the only one ...
BTW I still use these products every day and I'am pleased with them.  :-D

Soon I will have a Pegasos  :-D
