So, can you point to a single post that says "x86 solves everything"?  What you did was a classic strawman argument combined with passive aggressive complaining.

So you did understand what I posted. Why did you pretend otherwise then?


As for a post saying exactly those 3 words? Probably not. History showed thats how it actually worked out though.

The sentiment? Its common enough that the poster immediately above me is familiar. As are others that have posted in the thread.
Again, you know damn well what I am talking about. Playing this little "I'll keep moving goal posts until I seem to win something" game is tedious in the slightest.


If you are still sore about the CUSA thing.. let it go. If you think my posting is somehow disruptive to the site, report me to the mod's.

when I said I enjoyed many new users comments lately, RuneQuester was at the top of my list. I don't always agree with his stance (in this thread for one), but his threads always provoke the most interesting conversations.

Speaking only for myself:

People who like the x86 do not bug me.
People who act like the x86 is the Only And Inevitable Future and anybody who would like a new 68k or PPC-based system are backwards idiots do bug me. Very much.

Simple as that.

As one of the backwards idiots that bug you, I couldn't care less about you opinion.
I'm looking forward to new 68K and PPC systems. While I have X86 hardware, I enjoy my MorphOS system much more.

Uh, I think you mis-parsed my sentence. To clarify:

People (who act like (the x86 is the Only And Inevitable Future) and (anybody who would like a new 68k or PPC-based system are backwards idiots)) do bug me.

Clearer?

Then the mid/late 90's, after C= tanked... Competing "standards" (each with their own bug-ridden patina), vaporware, over-priced, unfinished, flaky products like the Delfina and CS-PPC, pre-order scams... You had to be a real gambler back then to "keep it real". :-/


And putting up with the total stupidity that occurred '95-99. P5 vs Hyperion, Clickboom, Visicorp, AT. Egos, egos and more egos. The only good things to come out of that period were AROS and UAE.

In this thread runequester is making assumptions about the mental health of people who disagree with his zealous attitudes, obviously trawling for undeserved attention (which I regretfully give him, along with everyone else who facepalmed themselves to a headache).

Way to go, calling people backward idiots :(

Intel inside an Amiga? Amiga's don't have an intel inside. Anyone who doesn't understand this doesn't know what an Amiga is.

Okay, I know bloodline was joking, but did I really just make things less clear in my attempt to clarify? ...bleargh. I need coffee.

I love how wanting to have amiga discussions without them negative piss fests apparently makes me a zealot for...something.

Amusingly i was the one posting a while back that an amiga desktop environment based on linux would make sense. Nearly got my head bitten off too :)

The meaning I believe was "People who say that someone who wants a 68k or PPC machine are backward idiots bug me (him)"

He must have forgotten to close a bracket somewhere :D
