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."

Top VapourWare Products of 2002 : Comment 68 of 72 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Nathaniel Downes on 05-Jan-2003 01:46 GMT | In reply to Comment 65 (Mikael Burman): Kinda hard to, when AmigaOS doesn't even run on the AmigaONE even in internal testing. Last time any update was given or screenshots shown (November or so) all of AmigaoS's components were running on Amiga 4000's and 1200's, and not even bundled together. There is no AmigaOS 4 yet, just a handful of new modules floating around in 30-some-odd systems worldwide that might one day come together as AmigaOS 4.0. |
