Amiga Inc. April executive update : Comment 61 of 186 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Alkemyst on 13-Apr-2002 16:26 GMT | In reply to Comment 58 (Seehund): *Any* current, future or hypothetical hardware that is, will be, or could be modified by the user, a third party developer or manufacturer into being, OS4 compatible. Just that the manufacturer can't be bothered to bundle OS4 or be a licensed "solution provider".
well if the provider cant be bothered then i would think NO
as the whole point of license is to prevent such things.
if a provider could do that then there is no point in having alot of the terms that are layed out on the license.
& you could end up with ppl buying any PPCmobo from god knows who.
& then find out when trying to install Os4 that itdont work or it does work but not as it should.
then your ask the shop where you got the board for help & they will say what well we know nothing about AmigaOs4
& asumed you were going to run linux or one of the other opensource Oses.
then you try getting help from Amiga.inc,eyetech,hyperion, or on some of the forums.
& cos it was not a licensed board you will be stuck as you will most likely get no help from
Amiga.inc,eyetech,hyperion & alot of ppl on the forums will only have a licensed mobo.
& then you would get get frustrated & ditch AmigaOs & many other who did the same.
thus in the end losing more amiga ppl or even some new ppl.
so instead of growing it would be shrinking. |
