100 reasons to boycott Amiga : Comment 7 of 72ANN.lu

>7. AmigaAnywhere runs on Microsoft-products.
I agree, this sucks. They should immediately get rid of support for Microsoft platforms and
rename the new product to "Amiga Anywhere-but-Microsoft", and prevent 95% of desktop/laptop
computer users and a respectable chunk of PDA users from being Amiga customers. This majority
of the technology market is uninteresting and unwanted, offering nothing but larger market share
and profitability, and Amiga Inc. should absolutely limit themselves to 5% or 6% of the
technology market for their product.
Am I the only one reading ANN that thinks these "boycotts" are rediculous? Why not complain
that DE/Anywhere works on Linux? Why is that "OK", but it's wrong to take advantage
of the market monopolist in order for Amiga to increase their own market presense and
potential customer base? Just think of all the possible customers that would otherwise look
at this thing, say "Gee, woulda ben nice if I could synch my DE/Anywhere PDA with my PC, but
Amiga Inc. chose to prevent me from doing that. Hey, that PocketPC without DE/Anywhere over
on the other shelf synchs with my PC to transfer software & data, guess I'll have to buy that
instead...
Duh.
