I think you are missing the point, Wayne isn't arguing against that.

As I side note, am i the only person who remembers Bill Mc trying to offer the OS4 job to Coyote Flux?

Anyhow, Wayne's not insulting A1/OS4/Hyperion/Eyetech in his posts. So what's the problem? He is stating an opinion based on available information. I have more or less the same opinion. Unless you don't like the negative A-Inc vibes, but that is a given due to recent history.
Someone has to state the obvious and that someone is me!

@Redrumloa:
 Since this point Wayne has stated, i mean talking about skills,not numbers.Well, they really wasn`t hundreds,but they are working as if the team was bigger than 3 times the actual team.And they are doing very well.IMHO.

Despite what others want to read into my comment, I wish them luck, but that's not what I was getting at.  

My point was, and still is that AmigaOS 4.0 for the AmigaOne platform will not be available for several months. (see above for my definition of several).

So far, Alky and others want to pick apart every single word and every single syllable, but none of them have even debated the idea that I'm wrong...

Therein lies the problem with this community.  "Shoot the messenger, regardless of the message unless it praises 'the name'".

This cannot continue.

@Alkemyst

Now you're simply trying to argue semantics.  /me feels that I have nothing left to say, since all you want to do is argue.   Let me help out here by explaining, in psychological terms the character traits being shown here by repeated argument on your part;


---------
pe·dan·tic    ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (p-dntk)
adj.
Characterized by a narrow, often ostentatious concern for book learning and formal rules: a pedantic attention to details.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pe·danti·cal·ly adv.
Synonyms: pedantic, academic, bookish, donnish, scholastic
These adjectives mean marked by a narrow, often tiresome focus on or display of learning and especially its trivial aspects: a pedantic writing style; an academic insistence on precision; a bookish vocabulary; donnish refinement of speech; scholastic and excessively subtle reasoning.

Why keep mentioning Amiga Inc?

The only thing they have done is shown everyone how not to run a company.

All they had to do was correct their stupid mistakes and apologies but no they just continued to act unprofessional and now have some guy answering nice little questions to win Amiga users trust back.

The damage has been done and hopefully many other Amiga users will eventually stop going on about those amateurs as if they are heroes of the hour, start supporting the REAL people who are doing something useful.

To put it more clearly, just hold up your middle finger to Amiga Inc and support the people who are doing something (www.hyperion.de)

If anyone is trying to argue semantics it is you with your debatable facts list.

Hyperion are making Aos4 under license from Amiga.inc.


Not quite. You make it sound like Amiga Inc initiated the license. They did not. Hyperion did.


Thats you trying to argue semantics.

Are you sure cos most ppl say my spelling grammer punchuation are from what you have siad.

And you dont see  me moaning about others writing styles at all or thier spelling mistake.

And your no Psychologist thats for sure so the fact that you called me pedantic has no value at all cos any one could go through a dictionary to pick out words to discribe someone weather the discribed word was the right one picked in the first place.


The reason why im harder on you is cos of your poistion.

i just dont accept ppl abuseing there power.

Your in a position of authority on A.org  so you have to be more carefull than the rest of us.

what i say has fareless reflection on Amiga.org than you have when you say something.

Im put in position of authority in most places i work with out my even choosing, simply cos im very good at what i do & the workers like me cos i dont nipick at other who are not as good as me. But im very hard on bosses above me when they try abuse their postision and i have never been sacked.

@Alky

Again, nothing more to say here.  You're now arguing with yourself for the mere reason of doing so.  Have fun.

Since we're now off-target with this thread, (my apologies), it is being locked.

Never said that i thought wayne was insulting.
The problem is SOME facts that are not facts.

I have no problem with negative A-Inc vibes, but that is a given due to recent history.

As long as they are stated with good reason, but there is every few exmaples of that as most of it is just plain flaming on amiga.inc cockup that we have all known about for a long time now.

The truth matter but it also matter on how you go about saying it.

The only thing i have been happy about to some exstent is getting Aos3.9 uptill now since Amiga.inc as been around & they had little to do with that.

I have not been happy about anything directly from amiga.inc yet. but i dont feel the need to go on about it everyday.
