Talk of Hyperion porting games to Linux on slashdot : Comment 70 of 70 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Steffen Haeuser on 27-Apr-2003 08:56 GMT | In reply to Comment 66 (AmiTroll): >They probably hope to make the money on the Amiga and Mac sides.

No, it wouldn't. The initial contact to IncaGold was created concerning
Amiga- and MacOS-Ports. The Linux-port was just "thrown in" into the Contract at a later time (That was my idea BTW, if I wouldn't have mentioned it the deal would have been for AmigaOS and MacOS only).
People working at IncaGold have a BIG Amiga past (I assume the name "Black Legend" sounds familiar ? :) ) They are aware of the AmigaOne, BTW. And there
are other companies "watching" how things go with AmigaOne/OS 4 also...
>copies. I think Linux had to be a part of the deal includeing Mac and then >even Amiga or there would have been no deal at all.
It is the other way round. There wouldn't be a Linux-licence, if there wouldn't
be a licence for AmigaOS and MacOS :)
