>  I ---really--- want to know what's going on behind that MorphOS project!

That's the easiest part, buy one and try one.

I have great respect for Haynie, but in this case I think he's just conjecturing. He has no proof that the MOS sources are stolen from AmigaOS and never will have. And such a claim doesn't even make sense considering

1) The limited usefulness of the AOS sources;
2) The fact that MOS was begun with AROS sources, which are certainly not stolen;
3) MOS (or rather QBox)  is very different structurally than AOS. It has AOS emulation using native code, called ABox. No more, no less.

1) 90% usefull for ABOX, perhaps.
2) I thought AROS code was used only after it became apparenty that MOS could not use  AOS as part of it.
3) But Commercial version of MOS (ships with every pegasos) is just ABOX.

I respect DH more than every other current AInc/Hyperion/Genesi kid all together.

argh.... I'm way too pissed off ...

Yeah lets all dig up years old posts and use them for some pathetic little agenda.

October 24, 2000

"Amiga's future, however, lies chiefly in its software, in particular its new Amiga Digital Environment software" McEwen said.

"The first partner, a British Amiga supporter called Eyetech, will sell Amiga circuit boards in the first quarter of 2001", McEwen and Eyetech said (refering to the AmigaONE)

Hmmm and not forgetting "Amiga as a platform  is dead" and "on schedule and rocking"

If your going to dig up comments made years ago then why not do it properly.

"...when at that time, Dave might not have had any idea what is, or is not in MorphOS since MorphOS was not available. "

It's not might, he stated that himself in the message, and that part is available on ann's post. I can't believe people can be such morons that post without reading what they're posting to.

Don't talk to me about FUD. You've done your dirty work on it claiming to be neutral at the same time!! . People are still waiting to know "THE TRUTH", and why  (if that's not the reason then what is it?) a company has to be bashed because of having financial problems. Haryy Garre CEO or who da hell was he, who cares?  Facts on why is AInc so evil, where are they? I'll be the first to stone them  8-).

You mean like taking them out of context instead of trying to dig up the relevent context so we can maybe figure out what's really happening?

@Paul_Gadd
Let's pretend everything is all great and instantly forget about anything bad so that we can live all happey and all that....

 What I'm trynna say is,  I'm just curious to know stuff like this, and what really happened, and I'm not gonna stop posting it just because some paranoid peple will start screaming everytime the sole subject is mentioned. It was just a cross post actually.

Never said turn a blind eye etc, i am all for exposing scum  but the mighty gods at Amiga Inc have done piss all about this magical stolen code in MorphOS which must tell ppl something.

This Morphos vs AmigaOS, Pegasos v AmigaOne,  Amiga Inc vs Genesis is just bullshit with no facts whatsoever to backup each others claims and shows the world what a bunch of amateur twats are in control (note: all amiga/related companies).

Both sides are a joke and If this is the future of the Amiga then it is DOOMED.

Note:  to below post, above is opinions not flame material as it is aimed at everyone  :-)

[redrumloa]

this post is not intended to any one person, just in general.

This is slipping closer and closer to a flame fest. Please do not let that happen or it will go locky locky.

Agree on this one but, on the bigger world, much worse things happen, probably everyday...

@red

Lock it anyway. For a thread based on blatant FUD and ancient out-of-context quotes, the Red Trolls have got more than enough publicity out of it already.

I'd love to post some Gary Peake quotes from the same mailing list, just to watch Bouma and his mob squirm trying to explain them away.
 :-P

...but I won't, because I don't want to sink to their level.
