Amiga-News.de interviewing Ben Hermans : Comment 45 of 86 | ANN.lu |
Posted by TimeWillTell on 20-Feb-2003 17:05 GMT | In reply to Comment 41 (MarkTime): If you think that QNX, Linux, or MOS are suitable replacements for Amiga OS,
you certainly should use them and get off of the discussions surrounding OS4.
With all of the years of devolpment of Linux, it still can't be used by a
fool like me. QNX has no legacy and no path to the future because of it. MOS,
with all of its' years of development is still VERY buggy.
As far as choosing MOS, Bill Mc tried to work with Ralph and was told NO
thankyou very emphatically.
Hyperion are the guys that have stepped up and taken on the job. They have
made an incredible amount of progress in the time since they started. We can
only be glad that they underestimated the size of the project, or they probably
wouldn't have taken it on. We would have no where to go. MOS cannot break through
without the Amiga name there just isn't enough to reccommend it to the world.
Amiga's prospects are dimm enough without people who represent themselves as
Amigans attacking the spirit and fibre of those that have done and are doing an
incredible job in the face of very difficult circumstances. These people claim
that they are just asking important questions, but many are deluded into thinking
if Amiga fails that MOS will be able to carry the banner. MOS has every prospect
of being a good OS, but has virtually no chance to attract the outside world and
therefore be anything other than a C64 style cult. This isn't even their fault
it is just reality.
I want to thank the Hyperion team once again for demonstrated fortitude in the
face of continue FUD assaults. You have much more tolerance than I do.
But then again only TimeWillTell |
