Man, how much more can they rape the shrinking user base? So after spending 10 times what os4 hardware is worth, now we're going to make you purchase drivers separately?

The argument that hyperion dosn't have to provide drivers is ridiculous. THEY are the ones who want locked down hardware/software system. If they want a closed model, THEY should be providing drivers. What are they going to do next sell you an OS without network drivers and make you purchase network card drivers separately?

And yes, people expect drivers for free, some graphics card drivers are the least you should get for spending so much money on antiquated slow as balls by todays computing standards hw.

Some of you people really just drink the cool aid. So tied up on a name that you'll buy anything, even apparently paying seperately for drivers.

I've said it before, this whole hyperion os4 plan is quite simply retarded. I know many huge amiga fans who just can not justify paying so much for such ****ty hardware and even the os itself is a piece of ****. If huge amiga fans
can't even justify buying it, what hope do they have to epand the user base? ZERO hope. They just want to rape and rob whoever is left thats stupid enough to buy their garbage hw and sloppy os.

Oh, and when is USB going to work in OS4? Are they going to farm that out to a third party developer and make you pay for usb drivers seperately too?

Hey, why not ship computers without any keyboard driver. Once the computer arrives you call them with a credit card and pay for a keyboard driver so you can type on your new os4 computer.

Ridiculous. Just ridiculous.

Oh boy so instead of buying a 200$ netbook running windows or linux you'll get to buy a netbook running os4 for probably 5 times that price.

At least if history is any predictor of price....

Does anyone know what the projected price will be for this?
