Amiga Inc. April executive update : Comment 17 of 186 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Keith Blakemore-Noble on 13-Apr-2002 14:03 GMT | In reply to Comment 14 (Björn Hagström): Bjorn - I note that you seem to be losing yourself in pedantic discourse and personal insult, rather than addressing the ACTUALY issue at hand.
Perhaps you ought to apply to yourself the techniques which you are lecturing me upon - did it ever occur to you that me interpreting your reference to "OS4 ROMs" as meaning OS4 ROMs (a la KS3.1 et al) rather than "boot ROMs with OS4 'extensins'" was simply because that was how it appeared to be written by you? Did it ever ocur to you that this was not some giant conspiracy to piss you off, wind you up and send you into a frenzy?
Now, if you have finished ranting, let's return to the discussion itself.
I have postulated that whilst it is a possibility that manufacturers may be content to have multiple different versions of their boot ROM, economies of scale et al woudl seem to suggest that they will instead settle for a single version of the boot ROM, and thus open up the possibility that units sold will be subject to Amiga Tax even though they may well be purchased by people with no intention of running AmigaOS (e.g. those seeking a low-cost LinuxPPC board).
That was, I believe, where we left off before you started ranting. If you woudl turn your attention to the topic, then perhaps we can return to a meaningful debate. |
