Most of the people who are developing for, using or interested in MorphOS come Amiga backgrounds (some of us go waaay back), enjoy using Amiga programs and APIs, buy (or have bought tons of Amiga software).
So where's the line to be drawn for the big divisio - supporting competing companies? As if that weren't always the case anyway. I bought one browser and destop publishing package, set of anim and paint tools, video tools, etc, and someone else chose differently. I bought certain expansion hardware and peripherals, someone else bought something else instead -
Does that mean we should all GO AWAY (and form little factions of a few people each? I think not. That satisfies a few people who are not capable of dealing with diversity or the idea of that there could be competition to that which they may have made holy. But it certainly isn't realistic. And just to placate a few "threatened" or antagonistic types is no reason to turn tail.
There is still a lot of crossover here, a lot of common commerce, and a hella lot of history. I might add that a lot of multi-platform use that has been discussed and compared, with no lasting harm to any animals or humans ; }
...Ease up, relax, vote with your wallets and not with guns. No reason to always be rude or crude either. Things aren't so bad, not to the extent that some would portray. Are they?
Good work Targhan! - peace out!
