NO OS4 BEFORE END OF YEAR!!!

[Ponos2D]

Naaah.

Written with arrogance. It's fake!

Burn Heretics! Hexens! Quakes! HereticsII! :-D

[Warface]

NDAs protecting the facts, so just let's presume OS4 lacks 68K static/JIT emulation completely, along with many other key elements... Then what?

If I were an AmigaONE owner, I'd care little about that. They work on the "thing" hard, and that'd be enough for me.

Nerves at their limits, right? Just cool down and relax, and rethink everything.

Even being an aspiring Pegasos owner, I'd say if you have chosen the AmigaONE/OS4 then have a little faith in yourself and those behind it. Hyperion never stated it's ready, they were careful, unlike Amiga Inc. Inc stated it as ready many many times... Then what? I mean it's pretty unfair of you all. They do their best - it was you raised false hopes, and believed everythiung from Inc. Hyperion and Eyetech made mistakes well, but made everything to correct their errors, and made serious efforts to get things done.

Just as I told in somewhere about revolutions - people get upset when things seem to become better.

Going the Pegasos way I still think that having an AmigaONE and OS4 is not a bad choice. Have a little more faith. So far, no one intentionally lied to you on this subject from Hyperion (I'd know if they did) and I respect that. Have a little respect yourself. For people having to complete an immense task.

My 2 cents...

What's up with the alias?

Actually, the cult of "De Fluffiga Rosa Kaninerna" (The Fluffy Pink Bunnies) has its roots in the very northern parts of Sweden. Everything began with a  calm and peaceful fishing trip, and then all h*ll broke lose. The rest is, as they say, history!

So, what I am more interested in, than the subject of this particular thread, is where, why and how you came up with that alias of yours "PinkBunnyOfDeath"? I'm more than merely curious...  believe me...  

[Ami603]

That`s all folks!!
Now i`m going to sleep a bit.
good night!!!

[Ami603]

So...
Come on,people.Let`s feed this thread a little bit.
we can make it better,so,blame Hyperion,eyetech,Ainc.
Blame they for not releasing info.
Blame for releasing bad calculated releasedates.
Blame if they don`t release a features list.
Blame if they release a features list that aren`t
supossedly ready yet as a finished features.
Blame if...
Well.Blame they. I suppose that we do not have something
better to do at the moment.

Amiga, Inc. said they would have the launch of OS4 at CeBit in March. Does launch mean shipping or released or finished?

Launching a product is releasing a product, I seriously wonder how it could possibly interpreted differently. The OS4 announcement was made quite some time ago now, the final feature set was recently locked, how could the launch on CeBit just be an announcement of an unfinished product? How could their global AmigaOne & OS4 marketing campaign throughout 2003 only be about a product that isn't ready for release yet? I'm sorry but what some guys are implying in this thread simply doesn't make sense. It's just another speculative rumour based on yet another claim of "insider information". We've heard it all before. Move along folks, nothing to see here...

[MarkTime]

Who said it would be ready in March?

Amiga said it would be ready way BEFORE march.
I said at the time, the wording was not clear, and as we got close to March with no product released, that the apologists would re-interpret what was said to mean that Amiga, Inc. could release AFTER March.

No one believed me at the time, but we've seen this happen over and over again.  Amiga, Inc. said that March was just the official launch of OS 4...that it could be released WAY BEFORE MARCH.

Not after, before....repeat after me, not after, before.

I said people would re-interpret the announcement.....
mutter....grumble...grumble....mutter mutter.....

 :-P  :-P  :-P

Take a look at the links, note the in stock date...
I'm not saying this is reliable, just pointing it out for general interest.

Amiga OS 4.0 for Blizzard PPC
Amiga OS 4.0 for Cyberstorm PPC
Also, check KDH's main page for arrival dates for the SEG3 and XEG4 @800 Mhz.

P.S. Could we keep this topic down to less than 8 pages? If it needs more start a new topic.

[Argo]

And by doing so, Amiga, Inc. separated the terms of Launch and Release from each other. IE, make them not mean the same thing. Therefore, if not released before CeBit Launch could be released at anytime after that.

[JoannaK]

@argo

If you had ever watched KDH pages before you would have noticed that this announced relelase date must be at least 10th they have now given. I have come to conclusion they don't actually have a clue of real product schedules but announce those dates to keep clients happy and waiting.  :-x

[Dagon]

P.S. Could we keep this topic down to less than 8 pages? If it needs more start a new topic.

Since it is 00:49 Central European Time I bet they wont make any statements, so lets wait till tomorrow. Maybe they didn`t seen the topic yet in any of the Amigowebsites or they trying to contact first Yoris to resolve this question.

[Argo]

That's basically my point. We haven't a clue.
What comes it what comes when it comes.

[Argo]

Actually, I was referring to known serverissues. Probably should have mentioned that.
It's just that over 8, going on 10 pages the server CPU load gets abit high and can tend to slow things down. At 14-16 pages, it's quite sluggish.
Not to mention, I'm not sure this is going anywhere anyway.

[B00tDisk]

Pity.

I really feel for the people suckered in to buying overpriced and way way underpowered Linux boxes.  Broken ones at that  ("Disable DMA to use your Hard Drive...").

Shoulda gone Macintosh, guys.

[samface]

No, it's a pity some people are so easily fooled into believeing every rumour they hear or read about.

[pioneer]

If the delay is true they should quit calling these systems "Amiga's". Every one they sell hurts Amiga's reputation a little more. They should call them Amiga-compatible Eyetech Linux systems.
