You guys live under rocks, obviously even I know more about the current Atari community, which is somewhat scary. The least you can do is to try out Aranym with AFROS to see what relatively modern Atari usage is about: http://aranym.sourceforge.net/

Surely nobody left is that naive?
Sadly, lots.

For instance, Hyperion market OS4.x with the "Remember when computing was fun?" line. That doesn't tend to suggest they feel it's going to be a workplace contender to me.

It's their "selling mantra" for "outsiders", an attempt to delude people into thinking that "amiga is back", and there's plenty of people in the "community" who buys into this, sadly. It's like a mental hospital with Hyperion (currently) as the local Napoleon, allthough with Hyperion I have this feeling that they are playing with the other patients minds on purpose to generate some profit.

I am one of those people who has bought, and supports Hyperion's products. I find it funny that you have that opinion about me and other users without even knowing why I have made this choice. It's either this, or for strange reason you think that people like me shouldn't enjoy using OS4.x, and/or shouldn't spend their money on products they're interested in.

You missunderstood me, I was probably using the wrong words. With "bought into" I didnt mean their products, but their ... gospel.
