Iggy,
The purpose of this discussion board is not to be an arena for you to categorize people, "colorize" people, insult people, etc. It's a discussion board where everyone can talk about all things Amiga. Hence you *can* speak out your opinion about the "Xcore/Xena/Xorro" of the X1000, which also includes critical opinions, at least it *should* be, and this *without* being haunted and taunted, called a troll etc by you or "your friend" amigadave (who also happens to be a *moderator* of this board(!)).
I don't know if you are drunk or just rambling here, but this was probably the most pointless thread amiga.org has seen in a long time, and while I don't mind you having a "wet monday" or whatever (couldn't care less), I kindly ask you to not drag me into it. If you want my opinions on the viability of the X1000 project, then you can have it, but don't start up a bloody thread just to play some blame game for... well, whatever it is *this* time??!
:mad:
Unnecessarily ugly comment there tmhgm.
And Golden was right, I wasn't rambling, that was pretty concise.
And we know your opinion.
And, no, I don't think you are a Troll for holding it.
While I find the X1000 interesting, the logic in spending 3 grand for a sub G5 performance system doesn't add up.
I also thought I was pretty clear that I wasn't blaming anyone.
"

not possible - even if I
tried too, I couldn't top some of the ones I've seen in the last few years
if it had been pointless, I would have posted it in the coffee house
My point here, and you are kind of helping to prove it, is that when we hold contrary points of view we get so wrapped up in our own opinion that we make inconsiderate remarks to each other (kind of like what you just did).
I don't come here to make enemies, and as a strong supporter of MorphOS you are a natural ally.
And David, yes he's my friend too.
David's got Legacy hardware, MorphOS hardware, and OS4 hardware (including the previously mentioned X1000)
And he's such a fanatical supporter of MorphOS that he's sending G5s all the way to South Africa so that bigfoot can finish porting MorphOS to that platform.
If you wanted to prove my points, you post went a long way toward that.
Unlike some of us, I myself, David and many others don't want to discourage ANY development in the Amiga community.
And yeah, I helped tank last night's thread.
But I know this about you, like me, you believe that in MorphOS we have something good, with real utility, that's only going to get better.
So if somebody attacked you because you "couldn't" find your NG system to be a valid substitute for a "modern PC", how would you feel?
BTW - No hostilities brother.
