Amiga Inc. April executive update : Comment 78 of 186 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Darrin on 13-Apr-2002 18:09 GMT | In reply to Comment 74 (Seehund): If you don't WANT OS4.0 then DON'T buy this hardware.
If you WANT this hardware then you MUST want OS4 to run with your Linux.
If you WANT this hardware but don't want OS4 to come with it then I can only assume you want to buy the bare board and then pirate a copy of OS4 off the internet and save yourself a few bucks/quid/euros...
The plan seems so simple:
You want to run OS4 so you have to buy the HARDWARE and the OS - to save time and effort (and piracy) they come bundled together!!! What's the problem?
Now I've heard a few people say "What if I buy the A1SE with OS4 and then I later upgrade and buy an AmigaTwo... I have to buy the OS again!!!!". Fair enough, but if you buy an AmigaTwo and plan to sell/trade in your AmigaOne then you'll be expected to sell that original copy of the OS with the mobo so YOU WILL NOT HAVE TWO COPIES OF OS4 ANYWAY!!!
Plus, I'm not sure if it has been made clear or not if OS4.0 will be a single CD for all platforms, or if there will be multiple versions like "OS4.0 for Blizard/Cyberstorm", "OS4.0 for Eyetech AmigaOne", "OS4.0 for Elbox Shark", etc. |
