[Rant] AmigaOS + POP/PPC petition official web site | ANN.lu |

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 276 of 280 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Marcus Sundman on 08-Jun-2002 18:19 GMT | In reply to Comment 274 (Björn Hagström): > There's still an if there. So you are speculationg.
The presence of the word "if" does NOT imply speculation! Do you really not understand this or are you just trying to annoy me?
Let's take an example:
"If you are at least 18 years of age you may buy cigarrettes."
There is no speculation what so ever in this sentence!
No one is speculating e.g. whether or not someone is "at least 18 years of age", but merely states that "persons that are 18 years of age, or older, may buy cigarrettes". There is NO speculation taking place. If you can't understand this then either I'm very bad at explaining (which is probably true anyway) or you are very bad at understanding. In either case you apparently can't understand what I'm saying so I think that it would be best if we didn't even try to communicate.
(On a side-note: the example sentence also does _not_ say e.g. that a 12 year old person may not buy cigarrettes. In fact it says _nothing_ about people younger than 18 years old.) |
