Call for Amiga Developers from A-EON Technology

@thread
Considering:

(1)Amistore is the principal source of income for s/w

Why is there not a push to install Amistore as part of default install for the OS?

#6

Maybe it's because Amistore is not considered to be ready for a release yet?

We are pleased to confirm that the first Release Candidate 1 is now available for public download here. Important Note: this software is still beta status and may contain some bugs.

A-Eon don't own the OS.

If I owned the OS would only consider providing it as part of the default install if A-Eon paid me a huge up front sum, which would reccur yearly and also a minimum of a 60/40 split of any profits from sales. The 60% being my cut.

Wouldn't you?

No, I would not!

Hyperion/OS4 And A-EON/Acube live in symbiosis with each other. If software (OS4) is sold hardware is sold (Exception: OS4 Classic and Pegasos 2). If Hardware is sold software (OS4) is sold.

You could say Win-Win situation. But I don't think there is any profit. So it's more like trying to keep the loss to a minimum.

And of-course they need us to buy there stuff ;-)


Edit: Acube might have the embedded market to fall back on? I don't know.
Edit2: Forgot Pegasos 2

So Hyperion should force their customers to install software written by a third party with no financial recompense for Hyperion purely so this third party can make money from Hyperions customers?

You'd better write to Ben Hermans immediately pointing out the error of his ways! :roflmao:

I don't understand you, I never said that hyperion should force OS4 users to install third party software?
