Do you know what events led up to the judgement?  Do you know that Hyperion was aware of the proceedings, so they could defend their position?  In many places, when one party or the other does not show up in court, a judgement against them is automatic.


How can such pro lawyer like Benjamin Hermans miss coming to the court?

I don't have the facts, but have read some unconfirmed reports that court notices may have been delayed from reaching the people who could have stopped this from happening.  I reluctantly share this info, as I don't like to spread unconfirmed information (rumors), until I know the facts.  I encourage everyone to calm down until we know more FACTS!


it is only a rumor when Hyperion bankruptcy is the fact.

I have been highly critical of Hyperion due to many of their decisions over the last 10+ years, but I agree that lowering the price for AmigaOS4.1FE and making it available for people to run via WinUAE emulation is one of the smartest things they have done in many years, if not the smartest thing they have ever done.


According to Hyperion it is not legal to run OS4 on WinUAE. See EULA on your OS4 DVD.

We have said in the past posts we would be open to making our software compatible on MOS and porting it over if there is a commercial demand for it.

We have had a good amount of feedback from AmigaOS 3 users who want to have updated software.  The new PPaint sales for Classic Amigas have been better than anticipated so far, so it seems there is a small market for AmigaOS 3.x software still :)


It probably doesnt hurt that MorphOS can run OS3 software so it has boosted PPaint sales a little :)

I this proven by benchmarks ? I would assume Linux drivers are much more optimised than native AROS drivers so I would assume ARIX to be faster than native AROS.


Right, the overhead from API translation is non-issue. It is so small you cant measure it.

It is more like psychological issue, just like those CopyMemQuicker patches which make people believe the system is faster.
