Kenny (if you aren't Kenny judging by the avatar and IRC alliances) has a habit of making comments which are -- to put it nicely -- abrasive. I'm just running out of rope to hand him, and others who use this site specifically to put down whatever they don't agree with while offering no constructive value.
It's called "trolling by persistent negativity" and it's simply not welcome here any more. You can be positive and you can support whichever solution you happen to like. I don't care at all. What I do dislike and will start squashing is the tendency to post crap -- like Kenny's post -- which serves no purpose but to put something down.
Whether or not the AmigaOne and AmigaOS (or MorphOS or the Pegasos for that matter) actually survive and prosper is irrelevant right now.
This is not slashdot. This is not moobunny. We're all here on this site (ostensibly) because we enjoy (or have enjoyed in the past) using the Amiga computer platform. Trying to push people away from the hobby they enjoy simply because you're ill-mannered is destructive to ANY potential platform which draws on the Amiga's history and tries to present us with a future path.
I swear to Almighty God, Ben and Allan could come here and say "we're giving everyone a free AmigaOne machine with AmigaOS for putting up with all the delays, all you need to do is pay postage" and there are some people who would still {bleep} about it. Just to be perfectly fair, the exact same could be said if Bill Buck showed up and gave us all Pegasos machines. Some people would still {bleep} about it.
All the negativity is unappreciated, and unacceptable. If you want to remain negative, go to Moobunny, Morphzone, or slashdot. Simple. To the point. Undebatable.
