Interview with Ben Hermans from Hyperion : Comment 184 of 194 | ANN.lu |
Posted by alt3reg0 on 09-Nov-2001 09:02 GMT | damnit, you all sound like what's left of the gothic subculture
bickering 'bout what's goth and what's not. I think that some of
doesn't calm down a bit and all of you try to understand eachother
and compromise a little the Amiga community will take the same path
as goth has! In a few years all the original Amigans will have
grown tired and quit so that all that's left are a bunch of weird
wannabees and suddenly Amiga get's the blame for some high-school
shootings and... umm.. yea, you get the point..
Anyhow, here's my oppinion: ;D
* AmigaOS won't be a hit on the X86 market until it beats (the THEN
current version of) windows in at least the following ways:
- Visual appearance
- Ease of installation and use
- Speed (both of OS and apps)
- Availability of apps (all the basic apps PLUS some real killer
games and stuff to attract new ppl)
- Extra features (like binary portability)
* AmigaOS 4 on x86 would never do that
* AmigaOS 5 hopefully will!
* Only techheads like us would use AOS4 on an x86
* If people actually switch to AmigaOS X as thir main OS some
time in the future, they might buy a PPC Amiga next time they
upgrade their hardware if they can simply unplug their old HD
and put it in the new box and still run all progs (go AmigaDE go!)
hm,, that's what I think anyhow.. would be interesting to see
AmigaDE/SDK hosted on Amithlon. ;) |
