Anyway, I voted for AmigaOne, and it appears most people agree...alright MorphOS/
Pegasos people, I see your point. I do think the Pegasos looks cool, and for the time
being, MorphOS has the advantage that there is actual proof of its existence, while I have
to take other people's word that OS4 is coming. That's all well, and I wish you all luck
with your project. However, you must realize that most people will follow Bill and Fleecy.
That's because we are now seing a chance to get what we have wanted to see for a looong time:
* A new motherboard with the Amiga name, PPC, backwards compatability and easy, cheap expansion.
* Some sort of centralized control over the platform. With a living, functioning mother company
standards can be set, making everything much easier for both users and developers.
* ONE AmigaOS. Developers shouldn't have to consider such things as "should I support
WarpOS or PowerUp?". With only one official OS, we can avoid splitting an already
small market.
So even if Morph/Pegasos turns out to be a better/cheaper/sooner released solution, you
can expect the majority will want to go the official way, I know I will. The Amiga market
can't afford a split, unless there is some significant expansion...
