Riiiiight. Schmidt is so paranoid of the competition that he won't even let developers working for or with Amiga sit in his precious MorphOS IRC channel as they might be "moles."


Just an outsider view (I'm not a developer).

Weeks after the MOS1.4 screenshot with gradients, antialiased fonts everywhere appeared, there were gradients and antialiased fonts in OS4. Coincidence?  Most probably, as these features were presumably planned for both in their initial stage. Yet the impressions are there.

And there is competition going on.  :-) As to either side is being paranoid... It's OS4 which has not a public beta to this day, and have all involved under NDA.

(To be honest, in the beginning I was a little mad at the OS4 developers, as when they begin their work they didn't know anything about morphos, and they didn't care. That changed by now)

Now we have two wheels, with minor differences.

Sorry for being off topic. But your personal insult Mr Akey was absolutely uncalled for.

And again many people agree with me and disagree with you. Interestingly those who agree with you usually don't know much about the design of OS 4.


Just as the opposite is true. I remember those interviews when OS4 developers were asked about MOS - they didn't know it and were not interested in knowing more about it. Also, aren't you working for Hyperion? :-)

@HMetal:

I apologise for my attack. I was not aware of your incident. I honestly thought from your comment it was just something general.
