I hope they see this thread and it raises their spirits.

They are indeed in a position to change the world. I mean, if the numbers only hit a few million, that's an impact, right? I'm not kidding. There's a better (best) way for computing to turn, and it is AMIGA!

There a many, many people who will appreciate the ability to have TOTAL SYSTEM CONTROL. Remember NASA? And hundreds of other special cases, where the other systems, and in this case even linux adds too much overhead, just aren't flexible enough.

I personally have an attachment to knowing where so and so application is, knownig I can move it to spot b, make an assign and off I go and continue using it. Any modification you make in windows, and its over, not like the Miggy, start off of an 880k disk, if worst comes to worst.

And NOT having networking/IE integrated and overhead in the OS will be sweet.

Amiga! Yeeessss!

@EntilZha

Thomas, its all true my friend.  I know I speak for lots of Amigans who are extremely grateful for all your efforts - the sheer scale of the project is something a lot of people have lost sight of.  

I personally cannot wait to see and use OS4 and the fruits of all your labours  :-)

I'm happy to see a thread without flaming and whining. OS 4 has been a long road to walk.

Hear, Hear !

I trust in Hyperion + AmigaOS 4 team.

They are loyal, dedicated, hardworking team & I have the utmost respect for them all.

In these dark  times, we need to look deep into ourselves in what we want and what we believe in.

Have faith & patience, it will be well worth it.

Lastly, Hyperion + Amiga OS team - a big thank you for your efforts.
 :-D

Well, to be fair there were a few individuals at Moobunny who thought certain technical choices made by Hyperion were wrong. (And of course these guys didn't necessarily express their opinions in very nice ways, which a lot of us don't appreciate, no matter where we are on the issues.)


Yes, IMO there is nothing wrong with having a different opinion or point of view. In a competitive market I would often view this as healthy. However these vocal people continuously spread cheap lies about the Frieden brothers, this besides the name calling...

Anyway, at least I share most of the opinions and views presented by the Frieden brothers.  :-)

Am I seeing things...a POSITIVE thread!!!

@Kay....well done for making this thread! It`s about time people said their support for Hyperion.

@Hyperion.

We know it`s a very difficult job you are doing updating the OS, and we appreciate all the hard work your putting into it. My A1 is already ordered and I can`t wait to get my hands on OS4 too.

THANKS HYPERION!!!! :-D

For real :-D

-edit-

I for one get really p*ssed of when people start bitching about delays etc. I'd like to see those same individuals attempt such a project!

AmigaOS 4 will be worth the wait, I'm sure. I'm excited ;-)

And just to show my support I just bought QuakeII and Freespace :-)

Nice to have a thread which is so positive.

WOW,

You all are this happy now, what if they actually had produced an OS?  Imagine then!

then we'd all be happy.

I personally like the idea of a positive thread...nevertheless, I can't be happy with NOTHING.

Maybe I just don't have the imagination for it. :-)

It makes an interesting thought, just maybe this community is happier with their imagination than reality....perhaps the worst thing Hyperion could do is produce the product....hehehe, just kidding, of course they need to keep their word and launch in March.

I can't buy a pegasos either, so right now, I can't start a positive thread, how can I do that until I have something to write ABOUT.

I'm not into the whole fantasy role playing aspect of this community, I'm still more of a pure computer nerd rather than role playing/hero worshipper....

I brought my first Amiga back in 1988 and was happily PC free until a few years ago. I've been without an Amiga for about 2 years now but finally, thanks to Hyperion, I'm on the verge of having an Amiga again.:D

Excellent work Hyperion. It is greatly appreciated.

I don't see any wrong in hero-worshipping. Amiga has always been about hero coders. Think about dancing fools for example  :-)

I respect expertize in any field. I believe that the Friedens were not kernel experts 2 years ago (might be wrong, though), but I guess that they know what they are doing right now  :-D

I also respect other achievements, like AROS and MorphOS. I hadn't mentioned this but at least MarkTime talked about Pegasos first  ;-)
 
Give them all the chance to show you miracles - and have a nice weekend everyone!  :-)
