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 168 of 280 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Tbone on 07-Jun-2002 07:43 GMT | In reply to Comment 159 (Samface): "Another product line? Where do people get this from... All they have to do is simply "rebundling" the hardware with another OS, no hardware redesign required."
Got it from the license. Once a board is licensed, it MUST be sold with OS4.
How many manufacturers are going to be banging on Amiga's door with terms like that?
By the way, you can't "unbundle" the board from the OS, that's the whole point! |
