I don't think we can make much judgment on these guys until they actually ship something. At least they've finally gone quiet and stopped stealing artwork and qoutes for the time being.


The official Commodore Amiga OS5 is coming soon and it won't be Linux.

excuse me but a 'new start' with who..the infamous sheysters at AI:madashell:..ah yet again trying to make a buck off the Amiga brand and this time off the back of CUSA

I'm sure many of us would have alot more interest in CUSA if they teamed up with AROS (who like Linux is open source and unlike AI has respect in the community)


Commodore Amiga is a registered and legitimate business in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

We will be announcing something very soon.

Curious. Those pictures are of big-boxes, not of AOI keyboard computers.

Regardless, I feel that this is all an attempt my an embittered Amiga Inc. to try and ruin Hyperion's success. I do not support any of this Amiga branded hardware without AmigaOS (and cannot possibly run AmigaOS) crap.


Commodore Amiga OS5 is coming soon to hardware near you.

It really isn't as solid as many amiga users make it look like. It was very solid in 1985. By the start of the 90s, it was still very competitive. But by the second half of the 90s, some fundamental changes would have to been made to keep it competitive. Either that or face getting obscure, just like Apple's classic OS did by the end of it's tenure.


Exactly... mobile devices. Tablets and smartphones. Which is something that C=USA doesn't do for now. Once they do, then we can talk.

Their processors are not really suited for desktop use. And they are also getting long in the tooth by now. Not to mention that it would be impossible to get any of those CPUs in the free market.

 

Partly yes... but today there is no better hardware then x86 and that's it. It's plenty fast and plenty cheap.

Sure you have other reasons... it's fast, it's cheap and has a clear future upgrade path, not to mention complete market dominance.

Amigas will not run Atoms. They will only run high-end Intel x86 stuff with high-end nVidia GPUs, possibly even with water cooling as standard in some models. Also expect 3D gaming nVidia support, Video Toaster editions(RealTek is one of their partners), possible Tesla GPU home supercomputers and so on... :).

All in all, I look forward to it. I wanna have fun... I also plan to contribute some software. They may be even an Amiga app market by CUSA.


"RealTek"?

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!

There is no claiming, C=USA has the license from Amiga Inc for the name, "Amiga."  After Eyetech dragged the name through the cesspools, there is very little damage C= USA could ever do to it. If anything, they are using well known models that won't have significant hardware bugs which is a perk the Amiga community is not use to.


I have the rights to the name Commodore Amiga.

I might license the names to AROS and MorphOS Team for zero cost.

If cusa became popular they could build a new platform...

I don't think we will let them become popular. They made some mistakes with their website, got upset at harrasment, and made some claims that could be seen as potential vapor.

Even if they do things perfectly from here on out some of us won't give them another chance.


They are nothing but a pair of shysters, Leo's blatant hasbara in this thread is proof of that.

I think its the desire for better "genetic diversity" so to speak.  Amiga was the "whole tamale", from hardware to software to end user.  These CUSA machines are just the wrapper.


One could say CUSA are inbred. ;)

Agreed, but I have to draw a parallel between your PC/Linux/UAE combo and paying well over a thousand dollars for buggy, out-dated, beta-level PPC hardware, even if it is new and running an OS without any hope of new software development.

Ok, ok, I'm sorry, I know.  I'll shut up now.  The PPC argument doesn't sway many around here who're determined to stick with it.  I just wish AROS would have taken off, or even been picked up as the official OS instead of the dead-end PPC 4.x...

Nothing new here, so why do I find it so impossible to shut up about?  Guess I'm still passionate about something Amiga after all, even if I am on the minority side.

See my sig.

AROS *is* the official Commodore Amiga OS5.  We own the rights to the names in all non-aligned countries and a few more.

well there's been some great new software and ports coming out lately...Hollywood, Blender and Timberwolf to name a few.  As for Fab helping out kas1e on the OWB port..yes that's great as a temporary small gap but I'm sure most of us are awaiting the final release of Timberwolf with much more excitement ;)


Why?  Firefox is a bloated piece of crap.

hey that's fine...you probably like Apple products too I bet...fine for you & to each his own etc.

FF has been my main browser on my notebook since it came out....the Apha release for AmigaOS4.1u2 is lightning fast..actually faster than my PC so can't wait till the final release is here !


I've used Firefox since it was called Phoenix.


It's a bloated piece of crap.

ok then perhaps you can team up with AI & CUSA to make a better web browser for your Workbench 5 iranian version eh...I'm sure many of us here will be waiting:razz:


We already have a faster and more standards compliant web browser.

Firefox has indeed swelled out, but if you do web development, some of the plugins available for it are simply peerless.


The level of disdain I have for web "development" is beaten only by that which I have with  regard to Visual Basic. :P

thats the best thing you've said!

look I maybe consider a troll when it come to C=USA threads and my opions on them, if they deliver everything they promised then maybe, just maybe I might do business with them and even support them, but so far a lot of promising, like they were going to support Aros, and their actions, like the ever changing Amiga fantasy case copyright text, treating legal action ageist Osnews, (hell even ageist me for my funny little youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlDagZX1vWI)  and saying thing like who gave wayne the right to the Amiga.org domain etc etc, lets just say there action to date have not really impressive me.


They threatened you with legal action?

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

We've not had the pleasure yet but I'm sure Barry and Leo Chuckle won't let us down. :)
