Glad to hear it. Agreed about the *real* replacement sentence. Happy Birthday!

Wayne:  let's see what Hyperion has for us first.  I salute Amiga.org!!

Paul_gadd: stop being such a fan-boy.  We'll see who has the better product.  Be it Genesi or Hyperion, I'll support the most promising company.  Unlike so many people here, I don't give a sh*t who delivers first, so long as they deliver.

I don't care what you all think!   :-D  I want my computing experience back.  Whichever company delivers it first get my money.   :-P

@Paul
Not Amiga Inc as you know it, but GATEWAY's Amiga Inc.  A whole other beast.  The stuff is thick, and we ALL should be thanking Smaug2!!!  You do realize that HMetal's basic website was completely based on Smaug2's?

@Darreck Lisle

You have been sorely missed by the community.  I hope you can finally come back.  Your enthusasm, gumption, and willingness to help others has been a true example of what this community is supposed to be about.  I only hate that you took so much heat on our behalf without being able to take any credit.

:pint: :-) Can we welcome you back yet?!!? :-)

@Targhan

And if you did your research, you'd know that Amiga.com isn't "HMetal's Basic Website."

Clue:  It was "Ted Wallingford's Basic Website" and it was he that put that site into place  long before I took over the amiga.com site.

Bonus Clue: The only site that is "HMetal's Basic Website" is os.amiga.com.

Nice try though..  :lol:

Fan of Amiga Inc? please tell me that was a joke and with my past comments about Amiga Inc that would have been the last thing i would have thought someone would have called me.

Fan Boy :roflmao:

@HMetal

You realise that there are quite a lot of mis-informed people floating around this 'Amiga' market place. You might actually be responsible for this.

It would help a lot if the AmigaInc website was updated more often with all these news items floating around.

Ask Fleecy and other announcements should really be posted on the amiga.com site, or at least have a link on the amiga.com website to where these things are posted.

You could go a long way into resolving this mis-information if you were pro-active about this, instead of sitting back and spazzing on everyone! :-D

And work with Rogue of Hyperion as well, to get the correct information about amigaOS4 released.

Thanks! :-D

Clue for HMetal: You claim webmaster for amiga.com over and over again.  If you don't specify os.amiga.com, then everyone expects you to be responsable for the whole thing.  That is how things work ;-)

Bottom Line:  The corporate side of Amiga.com is STILL Darreck's design.  Of coarse, it looked MUCH more impressive by 1998 standards.

If you do not want to be associated with Ted's use of Darreck's design, you should have specified webmaster for os.amiga.com :lol:

@Darth_X

Ah, but if you have really read everything I've written in the last months, you'd see that I've corrected people on this many times.  This isn't the first time I've said that, while I am webmaster and web application programmer for and of all of amiga's sites, I didn't design them all.

As for AmigaOS4, we release information from Ben and the rest of Hyperion when we are provided with such.

You're welcome. :-D

I really don't care what Amiga uses for a design for a given website.  Just consider the extra knowledge, that HMetal didn't design that specific amiga.com layout,  Targhan's lesson for the day.  :lol:

Edit: Actually, I do care about the design but the new one isn't ready quite yet.

Are you implying that all the bogus (and imminent, like in 2, 3 weeks, even in interviews) release dates floating around from Amiga Inc. since last november (or even more earlier) were provided by Hyperion? Or were those Bill McEwen's and Fleecy's own makeups?

But if that's the case Hmetal I'd personally
enjoy a "lesson" as to who did give them that
bogus info...not Hyperion then?

@HMetal

Actually, when I think about it, I'm glad that Amiga Inc used Darreck's design.  It was a design created from the heart of the community.  While it did look much better in 1998, there is still a history that is distinctly Amiga with that design.

An idea for you as the webmaster of Amiga.com HMetal:  Why not have a gallery of sorts showing screenshots of Amiga.com's changes through it's history? ;-)  No one said you couldn't have a little fun right?

(translation:  we are getting close to bickering, and this thread should be more fun than that!)
