And funnily enough, this comment of yours was probably the most rude, off topic and pointless post in the thread...

:rolleyes:
well, what it lacked in tact, it made up for in accuracy.

You still making too much noise, making people move on from the larger amiga-community
as a (until recently) outsider, i'd have to agree. i considered morphOS in the beginning due to the low cost of entry, but the biggest turn-off -- by far -- was the community. the way certain morphOS users, and at least one developer, behaved on the forums was a huge negative. i've since used morphOS in the flesh a few times, and, while very performant, just wasn't enjoyable to use (for me). but people need to try it and make up their own minds.

the best approach is the one taken by amigadave: sane, rational, understanding, and helpful.  morphOS isn't my cup of tea for any number of reasons, but it's a perfectly good choice for folks entering and/or returning to the amiga world and i still have an interest in it. if the OP was in the northeastern US, i would have been happy to travel and allow him to play on my SAM and on my old power G4 (which still has MOS 2.7 installed on it) so he could check out amigaOS and morphOS and make up his own mind.  both are excellent choices.
