He will finish his R700 drivers, soon.
Did you ask him about this or are you just hoping he will finish his drivers soon? Most developers don't like someone else speaking for them or making promises in their behalf. IIRC Hans isn't going to do 3D drivers at all, but 2D.

The mystical 3D support is nowhere to be seen. There have been talks about ditching Warp3D in behalf of Mesa for years, but AFAIK nothing tangible has come out of it.

MorphOS is not Amiga at all, nor is Aros

That's your opinion. Many don't share it.

I was there.  They didn't actually announce a price; only hinted.
He was quite certain about the price there ("north of £1500 ... definitely").

So is it definitely or not? You'd think he'd know.

It appears that Ben Hermans is at his usual crisis management mode, claiming that the price will get reduced ("price shaving" as he put it).

So which is it? I'd be inclined to believe Trevor over this Ben (hermans has been known to spread misinformation in numerous occasions before)
