Generally speaking, to speak bad about your competitors is probably the worst thing you could do. It's so much better to focus on your own strenghts than on your competitors weakneses. There are numorous examples of this, both in business and in politics. If there is the slightest possibility/risc that what you are saying may be quoted in public, follow this rule. Even if the privacy is tight, follow it anyway!
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

And i have always wondered why MorphOS/Genesi ppl NEVER focus on their own strenghts.


That is not true. Your statement is not fair. :-(

With a different approach, i believe that they would have attracted a LOT more amiga users than they have now. In fact, this approach from BBRV and employees really is doing more damage than good. I hope they will realise that some day. And it definately is holding me back from buying what seems to be a very decent AmigaOS alternative.


OK, I am biting your bate, I am falling into the trap!

So this is some judgement day, and you are a judge? OK then, go back a year or two in forums and read forward. The Pegasos/MorphOS "supporters" has allways had to fight from below, allways had to defend their alternative way from the allways *so holy* but never available "official" branch. Count the laughs about unstability issues, count the mockery, etc. Why did key MOS/Pegasos people like Ralph Schmidt stop posting on public forums? Posters was burnt, insane personal insults were made, there seemed to be no end to the mockery. Ben Hermans was a key mud slinger. Sources like ann.lu still holds everything intact for the interested. I am sure that you will see that any "aggressive approaches" were only responses to insane aggressions!

Perhaps you don't realize that your "with a different approach" goes the other way around too? Why is people like "Eva" on ann posting with such energy? Isn't it possible that the approach of Ben Hermans&Co scared away people from OS4 too?

However, the Pegasos/MorphOS has **proven their case**, time after time. I have personally owned a Pegasos 1 (april1), a Pegasos 1 (april2), a Pegasos 2, MorphOS1.0-1.4. I have enjoyed that for over a year now, so I know what I am talking about.

The strengths of the Pegasos and MorphOS speaks for itself. No "Fleecy Hype" is needed. Don't pretend otherwise!
