I also said the Amiga is already dead if you look at the situation realistically. This is the last thing I want. I love the Amiga. There is nothing else available to replace it (MorphOS is not Amiga in my view).

Got to love hypocrisy .  Sure the PCs users are stupid for following labels like IBM and Microsoft and only caring about the name.

But here you are saying the Amiga One with OS4 is a Amiga while Peagsos with MorphOS is not and OS4 is not even out yet.

Yes Amiga One and OS4 has the name, so what you bought your first Amiga becouse of the name?

MorphOS and Peagos was born form the Amiga industry, runs older Amiga software while getting close to what Amiga OS was.

As far I can see MorphOS is a great clone and just like a Dell is an IBM a Peagos/MorphOS is a Amiga.

Of course the OS and H/W platform sponsored by the copyright holders is a genuine Amiga. What else could be? Stick an Amiga badge on a PS2 and it's still a PS2, never an Amiga unless it gets integrated into the roadmap for the platforms future, which is decided by the parent company, not the users and certainly not the competitors

So I'm not using an IBM since it is differnt then IBM's PS/2 road map IBM had way back when?

I don't care if Amiga Inc has the offical name or not that is just a name.  Besides if Genesi wanted to they could contest the copyright on the name Amiga for the reason it is a spanish word and you can't copyright single words.
