osopinion: Close That Open Hardware! : Comment 54 of 169 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Samface on 12-Jun-2002 12:14 GMT | In reply to Comment 48 (Janne Sirén): I flame the petition because:
1. It's based on assumptions and speculation, noone on that petition has confirmed their accusations about the license with Amiga Inc. If Amiga Inc. doesn't reply to such request, then make a petition about Amiga Inc. not replying to inquiries instead of raising this kind of FUD.
2. People don't seem to even think about the fact that *if* their assumptions would be wrong, they might be causing great damage to the already worn out Amiga market. Please think before taking action, people!
3. Amiga Inc. *never* claimed that they would make a POP based OS in the first place and never said anything else besides that they would be supporting hardware manufacturers cooperating with them. This was their policy from the very beginning and now because Eyetech choose a POP based design for their AmigaONE board people start whining at Amiga Inc. for not supporting every POP motherboard out there today and in the future, regardless of by whom or how it's designed. This is simply not how Amiga Inc. will market their OS and I see nothing wrong about it. If you have an issue with it, talk to them!!! |
