Next Pegasos production sold out : Comment 37 of 280 | ANN.lu |
Posted by cOrpse on 07-Jun-2002 23:37 GMT | In reply to Comment 35 (strobe): " Rob, the AOS4 protection scheme is NOT a "dongle". If it was they could sell the dongle with the OS as a separate product like many other software titles.
PS: It's obvious the reason why this protection scheme was put into place: total control of what hardware may run AOS4 and which may not. It has absolutely nothing to do with piracy."
This is what people don't understand , the protection is a dongle even if its directly on the board , or on a usb plug , the reason its on board on the amigaone is to keep down production costs i reckon , but theres nothing stopping hyperion porting os 4 to the pegasos and producing a usb / serial etc dongle , and that counts for any hardware with a chance of running os 4 aka ppc hardware. |
