Well, its pretty simple:

If a man is willing to lie (AROS support), bully (lawsuit threats) and steal (copyright infringement), odds are he won't have your best interests in mind elsewhere either.

So why should I give him money?
What if the PC turns out to be dodgy components or otherwise defective?
What if I receive a pirated OEM copy of windows with it?


Are there any reason whatsoever to buy from this guy ?

Yeah, Piru is certainly going overboard with this picture business and the way Commodore USA used Marko's picture on their web page.  With all the other copyright infringement that goes on in this world, one has to wonder why he's so angry about this case.  Could be that he just doesn't like AROS?  That's my opinion for what it's worth.  MorphOS has missed the boat by being ported to a a new architecture.  Maybe Commodore USA is cutting into his sales of MorphOS by offering PCs pre-loaded with AROS?


Given the owner of Commodore USA has flat out stated that he doesn't give a **** about AROS, I imagine this isn't the case.

No, it was posted from his Linux computer.  You know, the operating system full of code stolen from Unix. :hammer:


I hear that lawsuit went really well for SCO.

Wait, whats the opposite of well ? :lol:
