@TheMagicM:

TheMagicMother, how are ya?

Nice to know that you made it to being a moderator, especially with that negative comment, I geuss you havent signed the petition, so what makes us users know that your actually for Amiga, and not for Microsoft??

Wondering, you dont happen to work for Bill Gates also??

Cheers!!

Your Amigain!

Amiga stands for female friend, which is funny, as many Amigians arent female when they call themselves and Amigian! 8-)  8-)
AMIGA will rise!

I signed it, but I doubt anything will come of it. AI doesn't seem to want to listen to the community. Frankly I have more faith in AROS than I do "Amiga."

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

@ All:

Well, maybe if we managed to have 10,000 or 50,000 to sign the petition, they would see a need to listen!

Cheers!!

AND DO YOUR PART! Sign The petition, Amiga Platforms future depends on it.
Get everyone to know to sign it, even if they dont know what Amiga is, they may sign it for you, if they care for you, then they'll sign it, and numbers count!

Cheers again!! 8-)  8-)
AMIGA will rise!

I respect the likes of Thomas and Jorkany, but here you are, Ok you may have some old school amigas, and maybe even emulator, or AROS itself, maybe MorphOS, But your real liking is the new MAC OX,


What are you doing? Smoking meth before posting or just pulling this crap out of your arse?  Even if your just pulling this crap out of your arse, you doing a mightly poor job of it.  MAC OX?  What is that?  You can't possible mean Mac OS-X?  Why on Earth are you going on about other OSs that I have no interest in?

SO Please, keep off this merchandise!


Your delusional if you think any of the AROS, or UAE, or clasic AOS or MOS folks are going to pull up anchor and go sail away.  We are here, learn to love us.

Cheers!

If what i say is untrue, than by all means tell me what is the truth with you and your situation, without getting mad, nor abusing, nor flaming me, as I will not tolerate it any more from no one on here!


After your last post to me, your getting what you deserve. I can't help it if you do not like the dish of reality I'm serving you. It's the truth and no matter how much it crushes your little world, it's still the truth.  Guess what really scares you, it is a Community driven OS and that means it has popular support which you think should be going to the Great Amiga Inc instead?  That's it, isn't it?

@Dammy:

Not true, its just when you made your negative comment, it sounded like you werent in support of the Amiga platform, but rather knocking it.

Now that youve told me your world, I see we arent that far apart from one another, the only

MAJOR

Difference being, you know how to word your sentences well, whereas try as I may, I probably do not word them correctly.

Either way, Soon I'll have about 20 people signed, and many more coming.

If you really love Amiga as much as you say, you'd be doing what I and many others are doing also, getting their friends and family to sign the petition, I mean, it aint going to change their lives, but it may change ours!

Cheers!!

 8-)  8-)

And dont you ever talk about me, you dont know nothing about me man, get to know me first. I just think those who dont support the petition, are now as smart as they'd like to be!

AMIGA will rise!

First of all, i'm sure the SAM440 will support OS4, and i'm very positive about that particular board. Just give it time, people! (and i don't mean in a "2 more weeks™" kind of way!).

Second, AROS is a great platform, with great goals. If it would contain a decent 68k emulation layer, like MOS and OS4 does, i would even concider using it. But for now, it's not usable full-time in a desktop/laptop system. Merely a "fun" OS.

And remember, there's always the EFIKA. It will be MOS-powered soon.

For the rest, stop :horse: and enjoy what you already have!

Regards,


Steve

The question is not if SAM440 will support OS4, but if OS4 will (legally) support SAM440.
So far all attempts to get a license from Amiga Inc. have failed and the (now dead) Eyetech is the only "company" legally able to sell hardware with OS4. What are the reasons for ACK gone silent? I doubt that it's only technical problems, they might also have just given getting a license.
But I agree, the SAM is the most promising of all "new hardware efforts". Troika's Amy'05 is just laughable compared to it.

@starke:
Can you please stop double/triple/quadruple posting and go on a holiday or something? Seriously man, after a month of boring us and 300+ posts WE GET YOUR POINT. No need to explain over and over again that we must dedicate our lives to save the Amiga.


On topic again: I also signed the petition, although I doubt that it will do any good. I only did it because I like the Amiga, both in classic form as well as more modern derivates (both software and hardware: AROS, MorhpOS, AmigaOne, Pegasos) and I would like to see AOS4 come alive to some extent (on whichever platform, as long as the hardware is in production, and not only available on Ebay, or otherwise used/NOS).

@Starke:
For f-ck's sake, man! Have you READ and UNDERSTOOD what you're signing? It's not even about "bringing back the Amiga", it's about how AmigaOS is supposed to be made available for 3rd party hardware. And I hope you're not signing on behalf of others without their express consent.

I believe that would be a couple of class actions from AInc's defrauded victims. :) Though they generally seem to be asking for more.
