Your right that is better!

Either way, my statement was they thought they could get those ppc
laptops dirt cheap,  port os4 to them and then... "rob the community." for those outdated spec ppc laptops.

I guess it didn't work out.

Silly amiga grave robbers, next gen amiga laptops are for AROS and MorphOS.

Reasonably priced... Working nicely and here today.

Perhaps "surprise sex the community"?

"Jerry Lee Lewis to his First Cousin the Community"?

"Catholic Priest to Altarboy the community"?

I don't mean to be a basher, but come on man, they make this announcement, then they just forget about it when it does not happen? At least explain the delay or say they cancelled the project...

As far as AOS bashers, I don't mean to be so harsh but I just think when you
price something so high that even big fans of amiga can not afford it, or justify the high cost with the 10 year old spec hardware, its kind of shooting yourself in the foot.

Making product announcements of a low cost alternative then just pretending
that announcement did not happen when people ask about where the product
is...? thats shooting yourself in the other foot.

Because of the high cost, I got into AROS instead of AOS. Truthfully though,
I spend most of my hobby computer time on linux now.

man!  Right now I am going crazy with the Rpi and all the crazy OSes being ported to it.

CommodoreJohn turned me onto RISC OS, which is pretty nice, even if they had some weird 21 bit scheme for a while (WTF Acorn?  Had to British it all up, did you?).

Now, they have Plan9 (from outer space - couldn't resist :laugh1: ) for it as well, which is pretty fascinating.

It is actually a pretty nice time for obscure OSes these days.
