"It saddens me greatly to announce that, effective today, any of my Amiga-related software development has been mothballed indefinitely. This means that, pending any unexpected developments, there won't be any "Amithlon v2" (aka "Berniethlon"), nor any further support or add ons for "Amithlon v1" by me."

"Berniethlon" - The End : Comment 138 of 221 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Mike Veroukis on 02-Dec-2002 07:53 GMT | In reply to Comment 121 (Anonymous): >H&P has been a very important member of this community and we should at least

I suppose this is where de disagree. I see H&P as a sub-standard company that has done more serious harm to the market then good. I've decided to stay away from their products years ago. Most of their big sellers like OS5 and StormC are mostly re-packages of other freely available software. Big whoopdee-do! Of course in the case of Amithlon they are simply reselling softwre that they have no right to sell in the first place! Wow, what a busines, where do I sign up?!?
If H&P went out of business tomorrow you'd still have gcc and you'd still have all the hacks and extras in OS3.5 and 3.9 on Aminet, HOWEVER, you'd also benefit from a new product; Amithlon v2 (or whatever it would be called, although without H&P in the way it could probably be called that). So that's how I see it.
