AmigaOS XL: Sale started on 18.10. : Comment 33 of 54 | ANN.lu |
Posted by CumGuzzler on 25-Oct-2001 03:03 GMT | In reply to Comment 15 (Shawn): Blame Newtek?! Are you some kind of idiot socialist or something? Commodore's demise was Commodore's fault. Newtek was the only company actively promoting Amiga computers in major video magazines the U.S. when Commodore wouldn't even pay for a postage-stamp sized ad, you ungrateful piece of dog shit.
Remember this, commie. There is nothing noble about going out of business because you think the Amiga was a nice computer. Newtek (and the rest of the Amiga developers) got fucked by Commodore, so Newtek did the smart thing and made their MONEY-MAKING SOFTWARE for not only Windows, but for MacOS and Irix. Despite that, they continued to sell and support VT for the Amiga, despite the platform being DEAD (in 1994!) And now, the Toaster dream is alive again in VT[2]. The OS is unimportant in the grand scheme of things, it's the apps that count. Do I like Windows? No, but I don't hate it, because it's just a fucking computer OS. No one stays in business hanging on to a pipe dream. It's about money, stupid hippie gaywad, not appeasing faggoty little computer geeks.
In short, what I always wanted was a Video Toaster, not an Amiga, so I don't care if the fucking thing runs on the PalmOS. The main thing is that Newtek has finally returned the VT back to the world. For that, you should be licking the insides of their anuses with your filthy leftist tongue. |
