Version 5
« on: February 10, 2010, 11:48:37 PM »
Just a silly little thing I noticed - development on a bunch of Amiga programs stopped after version 5. I wonder if the number 5 has some negative karmic qualities to it?

Some examples:
Photogenics
ScanQuix
Aladdin4D
DOpus
TurboCalc
Imagine (still alive, I think, but stalled)

Any others? :)

Given that they made it to 5, we could also hypothesise that the problem is with the number 6. This seems more likely than 5, since 6 is implicated in the Number of the Beast, whereas 5 is relatively neutral from what I can tell.

AMIGA 500

5+0+0 = 5


The Amiga 1200 had a 14 Mhz 68020

14 Mhz
1+4 = 5
