The link you posted works just fine on MorphOS using OWB, although I think one might have an hard time enjoying it on anything lower than a 1.25GHz G4 and a video card with supported overlay mode or equivalent. A first step to any collaboration would probably be drop all the superiority complexes and actually get to know a bit more about the various flavours, no?
Kind regards, Andrea |

It might help to temper some of the ire concerning even recent paths not followed.
Yes, it seems obvious to most, but many here still believe Hyperion obtained freedom to do what they want as a result of the settlement.
If this can not be stated publically...np.

Nice to hear it works on Morphos, since i have none of the 3 OS's i have no way of knowing if you can watch the video on any of them.

A second step could be to stop reading between the lines, and second guessing people's motives._________________

Hi Evert, now it is al clear to us.
One question for you, what do you think of a combination of linux with amigaos?
Thanks, Dirk. _________________ A1G3-SE + OS4.1 u1 iso (x2) |

perhaps if Hyperion (Ben H.) would say they are free to do this and are not allowed to do that (officially), f.e. if they are not allowed to change platform (to ARM/X86...). If they really agreed to that it would not be a very good settlement for them. Perhaps Evert (who knows the settlement) can give us more informations there. |

I must interject this, Evert - I consider you an incredibly good sport about all this. PLUS no 'Cloak & Dagger' fal-der-al, how refreshing!
Thank you kindly for your honest and genuine responses, 'others' could (and should) take note and follow suit......

Again, according the settlement agreement it would not be possible for Ben to speak to this. He's not even allowed to refer to the company or individuals by name.

from public announcement: "current or future hardware platform". It sounds like they "could" port it to other platforms but there were always rumors that they just stick to PPC because they are legally not allowed to port it. Would be interesting to hear if it is possible or not. |

You think he's going to explain this before or after he gives a status update about the netbook?

| @evert thanks for insights and genuine try to convince worst naysayers. i wouldnt have so much patience.
@subject of hyperion being free or bound by contractual obligations to a.inc and therefore unable to take most convinient future path:
i think this is a non issue. we can treat it as a black box. whatever the reasons are, the only sane and practical choices obviously cannot be taken. this is all we have to face. the settlement obviously doesnt matter much one way or the other, and as long amiga is a matter of faulty compromises it has no chance to get anywhere. even if the heritage of the source code and the like is a nice thing to have and to take care ot, the only sane choice is to clean start over from the scratch. thats what i think..

I cannot .... and even if I could, I wouldn't want to, I wouldn't want to interfere with their communication policy and strategy, except when they start bullying you ... well you know that story ...

not particularly appealing(at least to me), neither as amicygnix nor aeros. may be considered a emergency stop gap solution, but not a goal by itself. whatever course is going to be taken amiga philosophy need to be maintained in some way or must be dropped altogether. faulty compromise must be seen as what it is: a compromise.Last edited by wawa on 07-Apr-2013 at 04:29 PM.

It does not, it means that Jorit2 might have downloaded the image from letshavealook.info and changed it, Jorit2 does not need access to letshavealook.info to download a publicly availabile image and so the howis record on letshavealook.info is there for irrelevant. Jorit2 might have found letshavealook.info by googling.

Because It says so on my blog I also referencer to my nick and name in software I upload to OS4Depot.net.
So there is at lest two sources of information that links my user name to real name, and you can check the webarchive to see that I did not just recently change my about page.
But you never know if some one is posting as me, some one might easily take over my user account, and does not matter that I have long posting history on this web page.
And if you like you can contact me on Skype I can even put up live web cam for you, so I really do not have identity problem.
