Edit I'm trying to avoid using the word license cause it'ls too confusing.

Since they don't make any money from MorphOS I don't think they see it as worth the effort and cost to do it. I don't think they gain much by it, it would only open them up to more competition from the A1 since they now run the same OS (Eyetech could potentially steal pegasos/morphos customers by undercutting their prices).
Well.. Somehow I don't belive Eyetech could (or even want to) suddenly slash their prices in about a half of what they are now selling. There is so much excess baggage on Aone pricing (deals with Hyperion, Ainc, Mai etc..) that they can't compete on pricing.
Besides.. As I see this situation at the moment: (note, I dont work for Genesi or any other company involved, nor do I represent them) There is no point on starting to sell MorphOS on boxes to some limited (one hundred? *see at the bottom*) of Aone users. Only way I can see it to happen would be Eyetech to make a bulk deal with Genesi of right to give a copy of Morphos with every AmigaOne sold. Of course this could allow Aone owners (at Eyetech's expense) to receive same updates etc as other Mos users ...
I also think there's so much bad blood between the two "factions" now so MorphOS for A1 would be like a sign of defeat for them now.
Hmm? defeat of who? Please explain this one a bit, cause it was quite oracular :-P (oracle like)
(bottom) .. A hundred.. It's a quick round number based on well known and open hostility of many AmigaOne owners against any Genesi product and my estimation of Amigaones sold so far. Anyhow a really small number.
