AmigaPOP.8bit.co.uk is finally online!
Here you'll hopefully find all information you could possibly want about the "AmigaOS distribution policies and POP/PPC hardware petition". I hope the background information and FAQ will be especially helpful to clear up any confusion surrounding these issues.
If you have not yet signed the petition, then please do so now! Please help spreading the word by linking to AmigaPOP.8bit.co.uk. It's not too late to save our favourite OS and a unified POP-based hardware market!
In other news, I have finally managed to get in touch with the PetitionOnline.com administrators. The few abuse and sabotage attempts so far have been removed from the signatory listings. Not that any garbage would ever reach the recipient of our petition, but I understand some thought that it didn't look too good...

AmigaOS + POP/PPC petition official web site : Comment 127 of 280 | ANN.lu |
Posted by JoBBo on 06-Jun-2002 17:16 GMT | In reply to Comment 122 (Troels E): "Some of the people behind Bplan/MoreFuss (Those that where at P5) have proved themselves to be dishonest businessmen before, what should stop them from being dishonest again?"
Right, those _engineers_ who were *employed* by the Phase5 managers some years ago, proved to be dishonest businessmen... !?
Do you also blame Dave Haynie for what the management team at Commodore did back in the early 90s? That's like saying that Bill McEwen and Fleecy Moss who had been both part of Amiga Inc. once before during the Gateway days, could be held responsible for the fact that the AmigaMMC never appeared, etc.
One should really distinguish between people who were in charge to make certain decisions, and between simple employers who were just trying to do a good job back at the time. |
