Hey, CeBIT is just around the corner!
« on: March 04, 2003, 11:34:49 AM »
Hi all.

Could any of the Hyperion ppl confirm/deny that Amiga OS4 will be launched in ... *8* days?  :-o

Mind you, not if it's finished, 'cause I already know that answer  ;-)

Thank you guys.
Ciao,
Stefano.

Hey folks,

this was not intended as trolling. You must be th*ck in the head to think like this. I just came across an article about CeBIT and I noticed that's just 8 days away, hence the question.

Coder understood it... thx.

About silly questions and answers, my dear lempkee, next time try to read the posts more carefully: AFAIK, nobody knows if OS4 will be *LAUNCHED* at CeBIT as previously announced, unless I missed any subsequent press release from Hyperion. Correct me if I'm wrong (and if you can manage to be more... forgiving).

Ciao,
Stefano.

DaveP,

I know that, but it really makes me feel sick the fact that you can't take my word that (once again) *I was not trolling*. Is it so difficult to understand that I may not be able to cope with "the news, articles and the huge number of times this has been asked on forums without going properly answered over the last month"?
Sorry for the G word.
Ciao,
Stefano.

 :-D
I just wanted you to feel the same medicine... ok, sorry again. Peace done.
Now, back to the original question: I can understand (being a developer myself) Hyperion ppl to avoid saying anything one or two months in advance. BUT! CeBIT is only 8 days away, and I can assure you that you can't do too much stuff in 8 days, even less DEMONSTRATE it in such a computer fair... so what they already have is what will be demonstrated (if it will ever happen, that is). I *really* don't see why they shouldn't give a public statement about their participation to the CeBIT...
Ciao,
Stefano.

@JurassicCamper

Thank you for *your opinion*, but that's not what I was asking for. BTW, no need to get *that* angry, man... after all, it's just software and hardware  ;-)

Again,  this is a plain and simple, no troll, request for a public press release about OS4 launch.
Ciao,
Stefano.

Thanks for the corrections.
Ok, well, erm...  :-D  Care to answer the question?

@DaveP

So, you mean that the answer is YES (we'll launch OS4 at CeBIT).
Well, I guess I won't be able to get any better answer than this. :-(
/methinks If my company were to act like this, we'd get bankrupt in a year or less... oh, well.
Ciao,
Stefano.

(sigh!) Again, this is no trolling and/or flamebait. Just a request for a public statement.
Don't be frustrated: in 8 days we'll definitely know, either from Hyperion or from anybody else...  :nervous:
Ciao,
Stefano.

@MarkTime

I didn't make myself clear: I am consistently trying to persuade Hyperion folks that *my request* for a public statement is not a flamebait, because I think that we'll get no answer unless Rogue and collegues can believe our true intentions. So you were not the target of my post, sorry if that was not clear enough.

On a side note, I have a hard time rating  your post "quite polite", otherwise correct and "quite to the point".
Ciao,
Stefano.
