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...

Yeah, they're shipping with Linux but NO AmigaOS4. Does this contradict what I said in any way? I don't think so.
Anyway, if this is not true so why did you/Amiga ask bPlan not to sell PEGASOS-based machines bundled with AmigaOS4 as long as MorphOS would be part of the package as well?

Here is a small snippet taken from your answer: "Desinformation. ONLY for those users interested in getting OS 4." |
