Cause the article is in itself a :flame:

What? They should write articles and hide them away so no-one can find them?


People still want to read articles even if they disagree with them, however the way this article is presented it does look a bit like 'HOT OF THE PRESS EXCLUSIVE NEWS' (quote taken from crappy UK tabloids).

"Your comment was a trolling one."

ok,you are right, and I request excuses to you.

but it´s very suspicious that always leaves east type the news when there are  good news on about aone/os4.

  I never see the negative news on  of genesi in this site.

@ Redentor5

Is there any 'negative news about Genesi' you think we've missed?

I actually bolded the top line to make it look sundered from the story. If you click Read More, the damned thing puts the summary up top and makes it look like it's the first paragraph of the story, which it's not. The Staff Writer thing also helps keep the summary separate from the story.

Anyhow, it's been awhile since AO has posted an original article, and I personally have been pretty inactive the last couple years. But "Meesa back!"

You're welcome, and thank you. I wish the news wasn't so grim, though. I'd much rather have written a story about AI succeeding. :(

I don´t know it, but I can´t be thought that there isn´t any.
You can think that this is not a good moment to make that article.  I don´t understand that you look for making this article.

We hoped to see new products of Amigainc.,(hyperion, eyetech) not that remembers to us badly that is, constantly.  That we already know it

 :-(

@DaveP

Come on man, no need to run off like a baby... so KennyR flamed ya!!!, so whaaaaat?...your acting more immature then he is  by running off like that... but if you fail to see it my way, then I can at least say I will miss you and I hope you return someday.

@All

I think this article is good, un-biased... and at this time its long overdue

@KennyR

@ meerschaum

I understand daveP his anger though ...

Humans tend to say insulting things on an online forum more easily then they would in real life ..

And we're all human ....

We are so close to OS4.0 coming out... The AmigaOne board WORKS !..  (and it will still come out).

There are other options as well (Genesi)..

It all looks like something GREAT is about to happen with Amiga Products.

I really don't see the purpose is going over the same depressing news that was posted before....  We have had nothing but depressing news for the last 10 years....

NOW, good news is coming with OS4.0...
If it is a  good product SOMEONE will continure promoting it and selling it...   I look forward to more successes with the Amiga....  :-)  :-)  :-)

This forum is all starting to sound more and more like ANN...

That is not good.....
