About 'Piru'

[Iggy]

I doubt anybody, except Harry himself, has any real idea why he left.

[Iggy]

Why not if left a.org all of us? no one likes the moderation or owners.

Ted? I have no problem with him.
And he doesn't whine like Wayne was prone to.

Piru, if you're interested in contacting him, maintains a homepage.

https://www.sintonen.fi/

It also has a link to his software repository.

And I've had him respond to inquiries on MorphZone.

Wow, who needs Franko with this kind of stuff being posted?

Hard to believe how this thread has deteriorated.

Honestly, would you expect a MorphOS team member not to have a strong personal preference in operating systems?

[Iggy]

I don't know if I'd support the Pi, but an ARM transition makes sense to me.
Of course, at this point you are probably talking about ending legacy support.
So what we'd have isn't really Amiga related.

[Iggy]

Don't you see the difference between Piru and for example Fab or Itix ?
AFAIK all MorphOS team members.

Not really.

Piru and Fab (especially Fab) have helped me solve problems.
I haven't had to exchange anything with Itix, but if you really want to know, Frank Mariak has been the most helpful (along with, indirectly, his team mate Mark Olsen).

Actually, most of the people in the MorphOS community will offer useful advice  or help.
We just seem to have garnered an undesired reputation related to our unwillingness to be abused.

Remember, we all think we are using the OS that the entire community should have transitioned to.

Actually it is my observation that MOS users gatecrash AOS4.x discussions a lot more that AOS4.x users invade MOS discussions. AOS4.x users seem to be better behaved.

I really haven't seen much decent interaction between either of these groups.

Then you've got a few people interested in both products (AmigaDave, myself, more than a few others) that still have the opinion that one is better than the other.
We can hardly be blamed for voicing that.

I myself would love to have more experience with OS4, but at the current price levels that the hardware goes for I'll stick to demos of friend's machines.

And as to OS4 users 'invading' MorphOS threads, they're welcome at any time. We (unlike others) don't suffer via fair comparisons.

 In fact, I think the only people we look over our shoulders for are the AROS developers.
