AFUA visited Thendic-France : Comment 209 of 629 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Teemu Suikki on 25-Apr-2002 15:50 GMT | In reply to Comment 203 (Samface): Samface, you may not believe this, but you are wrong. By continuing
the arguing you simply make yourself look more stupid.
Every Amiga program uses AmigaOS ROM. It is not illegal, that's why
the ROM is there for.
There are some programs that replace (patch) parts of the ROM. For
example MCP and such commodities. They are not illegal.
The public morphos release is started from AmigaOS, just like any
other AmigaOS program. Sure it replaces some of ROM code with PPC
native stuff, but that's not any more special than what's MCP is
doing.
Your "law quotation" is for different thing. It means emulators that
run on different hardware.. For example, to run UAE on Windows, you
need a copy of Amiga ROM, and getting that is illegal. Running UAE on
Amiga is legal, because you don't need a ROM file.
