Amiga, Inc: Close That Open Hardware!

[Paul_Gadd]

Who really is going to pay high prices for a TeronCX board then pirate OS4? madness

OS4 will be pirated but i would say the PPC card version the most, give it a few days/week after it is released before a ISO is uploaded to warez sites.

[Paul_Gadd]

this approach would totally cut Eyetech out of the equation

and

But to protect Eyetech's position

I agree with that, why let Amiga users buy cheap hardware from any computer shops and buy the OS seperate when you can force them to go to certain amiga shops and pay top price,

Not a bad scam if you look at the whole picture.

[Paul_Gadd]

Yes, you won't get the AmigaOS4 for free, if that's what you expected

I would not expect OS4 to be free at all,

do you really think another distributor would give you the same hardware support for AmigaOS4

No one would really care if they could buy the same hardware for $100 cheaper elsewhere,

Its all about restricting the user base, all i see it is doing is giving people an ultimatum and not a choice,

Pathetic.

@ple3003

You probably hate me by now.

Hate you?

What are you even talking about?

[Paul_Gadd]

@ple3003

Yeah i remember, this AmigaONE vs Pegasos madness has gone over the top,

I will not be purchasing either of them but i think it is great to see healthy competition in the Amiga market,

Let the best man win,

As for the petition you posted comments from, yeah i've signed it  :-).

@Alkemyst

If you have read those comments then it clearly says why they wont purchase a A1 board,

But again we are back to the good old "someone has said something negative about the wonderfull Amiga" which must be tearing you apart inside,

They is no mention of Boycotting on there or even plans to do so unless you have visited a page which i missed (url please).

@Helgis75

Why dont you tell your heros to act professional and update their websites,

As for the "Anyone that says anything negative about the Amiga are MorphOS fans" is just pathetic.

[Paul_Gadd]

Fleecy have asked Alan to update their website

What kind of (so called) professional company needs to be told to update it`s website?

Madness.

[Paul_Gadd]

@Helgis75

What has Bill Buck got to do with a company not updating it`s website?

Next you will be blaming Buck for the delay of G4 chips,

@420Dude

 :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D

[Paul_Gadd]

Yeah Eyetech the wonderfull Amiga company who expects it`s customers to all subscribe to the AmigaOne mailing list for announcements about hardware people have ordered,

A professional company my arse,

Update your WEBSITE.

[Paul_Gadd]

Jealous of a company who can not even lets its customers know what is going on? yeah i am so Jealous,

Good luck to you  :-)

@AmiGR

I'm upset cause some people reply (no, not helgis) as if I killed their mother every time I say anything bad about Amiga Inc.

Thats the problem, people are so against anyone what says  anything negative about wonderfull Amiga inc,

I wonder what MAGIC has Amiga inc done to earn them so many obsessed fans,

FFS the company can not even sort out t-shirts.
