Take it easy.  :-)

It's MC speak (that's a pun that is) for "everybody will be there".

Didn't work for me either. Don't worry, it'll either be fixed soon or the main site will be up.

Why MOS continues to be 'amiga-related' is beyond me.  For crying out loud - MOS IS NOT AMIGA ANYTHING.  It has a layer to run classic apps, gee wow - other platforms do too!  They amiga ?  perhaps all amiga is now is a layer to run apps on top of other crap ?  I Don't think so!!!!!!!!!!!!!


There needs to be greater segregation between this Morphan crap and the REAL AMiGA.

Let's not turn this into another trolling contest. Personally I don't like MOS, or the people behind it, and I'd rather have OS4. But to say MOS isn't Amiga related is wrong, much like it is wrong to say that OS4 is vaporware done by people who know nothing about the Amiga.

So let's wait and see how the competitors do against each other. Flame x86 instead ;-)

Well if Im so misdirected please explain to my simple mind how MorphOS is 'Amiga-Related'.

It's kernel is not even a close derivative of the Amiga kernel or it's friends.  

The ONLY connection is the emulation layer, which works well because of the fact MOS runs the same processor as AOS.  

Next you'll be telling me that Apple Computers are 'amiga-related'.  Honestly, I think the line should be drawn a lot closer to home before the stains start to appear on this turf which you claim is ours.

MorphOS runs on classic Amiga hardware.  That makes it related.  Sure you can say Linux does too, and in that respect Linux is too.

But the fact is, MorphOS has the interest of part of this community in a way Linux does not, and even some Amiga developers are on board.

It'll go away eventually if AmigaOS delivers, and if AmigaOS does not, then thank goodness for MorphOS.

Personally, I want Amiga to deliver, lets hope they do....who in their right mind would assume they will after all that has happend the past 5 years though.
