On an ANN thread Bill and Raquel comment on their attitude towareds AmigaOS4 and it's appearance on the pegasos.
"If AmigaOS4.0 is fully finished and running natively on a
PPC we will be happy for Hyperion and Amiga Inc. Undoubtedly, in this community
there will be more than one person who will copy a legally obtained copy
of the operating system onto the Pegasos. How will Amiga Inc. stop this?
We cannot control this and neither can they. If AmigaOS4.0 becomes what
it is claimed to be – great! We will sell a few more Pegasos machines.
Thanks Hyperion! We wish them our best. We have absolutely nothing against
this effort."
Personally I think that no hardware developers who don't licence the amiga
name will pay money for certification to get os4 running on their boards.
However because the pegasos and the amiga one share the same northbridge
and BIOS (atm), it should not be difficult for a developer to port os4 across
to the pegasos. The question is; Will Hyperion and Amiga Inc allow this without
wanting money from Bplan/Thendic France? And does it matter?

Thendic France comment on OS4.0 : Comment 56 of 165 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Alkemyst on 19-Aug-2002 00:49 GMT | In reply to Comment 55 (Daniel Miller): yes your right about ppl wanting to run Aos4 sayimg that it would be nice to have it run on the Bplan.
many were thinking wich to get, Aone or bplan & alot of us said we will wait & see when they cvome to market.
but now that it looks like the Bplan will nt get Aos4 the ppl who realy just want Aos4
have are now saying well even tho the Bplan mobo is nice its a no contender now as it will not run AOS4.
so the MOS ppl should really stop wasting there time with Bplan is mobo is better than Aone as if they will run MOS & AOS4 on both so choose the better mobo, as now the OS is the factor not the mobo.
dont waste your time telling a person who wants AOS4 that the Bplan is better for them as it will not run AOS4.
likerwise teeling a MOS person that the Aone is better as it will not run MOS. |
