Angry Mob

OK,

So on the internet (without spamming anyone), how do we all chant "We want OS4! We want OS4!" like an angry mob??? Hehehe.

Seriously, why can't they release it as is and release a patch if something aint right or unfinished?  I can understand wanting it to be "done" but at the same time it's just taking too long to even be worth the effort.

Thanks,

You're right, I want the BPPC version!  Plus, people aren't going to take it more seriously until it's officially released...

Sure that would make sense to them, but not for me...

The way I see it is I can run both classic software (well) and try OS4 too on the same machine.  When (**IF**) my usage of OS4 outgrows the machine, then I'll upgrade to AmigaOne.  But right now it really seems like throwing money out the window.  os4depot.net is not impressive if that's all the software out for it.

Thanks,

Great comments.  But:

1. Who said it isn't ready anyway?  Beta testers seem to think it runs OK.

2. OK so you wait until you've finished whatever requirements you feel are needed.  It's still going to be slammed for these three: 1. No fully compliant browser.  2. No office tools.  3. Not enough software.

The point is, the longer you wait, the more DEAD the market is.

A pre-release of BPPC would certainly hold me over for awhile.  Why can't they just put it up for sale AS IS and simply call it a Pre-Release?

The bigger issue of software is going to remain until it is officially released though.  I don't think many people are going to release or even begin developing products until then.
