Anyone get why osnews pulled the os4.1 story?

A one man company with no website in the computer industry, with a history of not-producing for the same exact market segment.  Honestly, how can anyone in that position dupe AI?  I can't claim to understand what went on there, but the theory that ACK duped AI seems nearly impossible.

Belial6, I agree, amiga inc is nothing but trouble and i dont expect them to do anything worth writing home about this part of the millennium...

But writing such a replacement will be one heck of a job, i know the source for kick start 1.3 is out there tho decompiling 3.1 wouldn't take a genius... Best thing would be to topple amiga inc and for someone with a bit more fudge between the ears, atleast enough to know whats good for the name, company and rep to take over so we would have someone we could co-operate with, or would want to co-operate with behind the wheel...

weirdami,

We probably won't know for sure, but it's more likely that AI found it convenient to partner with a "hardware developer" that they knew could not deliver. Why go through the mess and bother of contracting actual devices when all you're trying to do is look like a real company?
