Our favourite platform has achieved the number 9 spot for the top ten vapourware products of 2002. http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,57023,00.html for details.
From the article:
"9. The new Amiga: Earlier this year, fans of the Amiga were in a tizzy about the prospect of a revival of the comatose platform: Both new machines and a new operating system were promised. Suffice it to say, neither are readily available.
"Some retailers and the Amiga website are taking orders for systems, but 'selling' and 'shipping' are two very different things," wrote reader Russ Van Winkle.
Swift Griggs added: "I've heard promises now for three years. Amiga Inc. has delivered nothing but lies and hot air now for three years, just like everyone who has come before them in the post-Commodore Amigan holocaust."

Q: I have but one simple question. Is Windows XP, Windows 98? Yes or No.
A: How do you define "Windows 98"? Ability to use it the same way as you allways used Windows 98, the same programs, the same feeling, etc? Then it's a "Yes". And it's improved, both in HW and SW. The brand sticker? Then it's of course a "No" (but nevertheless "Windows 98 like").
..So, is MOS an Amiga? Yes or no? ;-) |
