Well done Amiga Inc and Hyperion, you bunch of muppets really do know how to run a buisness

What has hyperion to do with his hardware dying?? I can understand why you blame amiga inc and eyetech for us having no hardware, but why hyperion? They are only porting the OS and cannot legally port it to another platform without getting permission from the {bleep}es at amiga inc.

Hyperion were an integral party to deciding the overall strategy under which things would move forward. PPC, monopoly arrangements, licensing, etc.

They are as much responsible for the current situation - albeit indirectly - as Amiga Inc and Eyetech are.

The situation is a bad one and everyone is responsible, including the users who were so desperate for a new AmigaOS that they were willing to buy anything put in front of them regardless of quality or price. Thus a strategy which was bound to fail was embarked upon.

As for warranties, it's no longer a question of them being valid or people's statutory rights. You can't replace kit if no replacement kit exists.

The only realistic option is to write it off as a bad experience and move on.

Surely you can get your A1 replaced under the warranty terms?


"I bought it used on a web auction."

Thanks to the wonderful trio they (might) have lost an OS4 user/potential developer to the competition.

his original statement was about the "trio" losing a developer to the competition not about the "trio" fixing the competitions board. you guys seem to be arguing in different circles.
Oh yeah?!?
Well your stupid bit is set,
and its read only!

They haven't lost anything... If there ever will be new hardware available I will buy it...

I might buy a peg while waiting for amiga hw to be available, time will tell... :)

I wish they could just port AmigaOS to x86 and be done with it. We would never have HW problems again as long as the OS was in continueues development...

How the heck do you write continueueueueues :)

A Radeon7500 is the best card you can use in a Peg1.

That just changed with the MorphOS 3D update 2. Pegasos 1 can now use the same cards as Pegasos 2.
read all about it


Thanks for the info Piru :)
