SciTech Software Inc. announcement : Comment 133 of 195 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Petr Krenzelok on 19-Feb-2003 11:12 GMT | In reply to Comment 118 (Ben Hermans/Hyperion): Hello Ben,
I think it would be wise to not anymore wait for any such offer :-) I think that everybody is a bit tired of they said that, they promised that, etc. - both sides - Genesi, AInc. + Hyperion.
If there are no other reasons involved, I think you could try to think about following "facts"?:
- AOS on Pegasos is a bit of an competition for Genesi. There are two sides of coin - 1) Genesi sells a bit more machines to AOS4 followers 2) If AOS4 is more succesfull (or e.g. cheaper), what should Genesi do with MOS division? :-) So, could it be Genesi is not specifically interested into getting AOS onto Pegasos anymore?
- Hyperion - sw company - needs sales. Sales of OS are related to HW. So, shouldn't it be in your best interest not waiting for some promisses etc. and register as regular Phx or othere level developer, get your Pegasos, and try to port AOS4 anyway? Just don't tell me you can't spend those 299USD? You told us about embedded space for AOS4. But - what are you talking about? AOS4 is gonna run on A1 only - that is not small factor MB. I think that Pegasos, because of smaller form factor (plus other planned micro MBs), can mean another oportunity for AOS in embedded space.
I think that what Amiga market misses is some common sense. Why should we always look behind, instead of following new oportunities?
Cheers,
