The COMPLETE civil docket for Thendic Electronics, et al v. Amiga Inc : Comment 66 of 99 | ANN.lu |

I see it like this. It may be more difficult to promote Pegasos(es) versus AmigaOne(s) when AmigaOS4 is out (to ex or current Amigans anyway). MorphOS runs AmigaOS3-only apps. Right now, the interim period has been used to entice very waiting-weary people to spend on a Pegasos/MorphOS via price cuts, bundles and so on.
The Peg has been pushed as a machine on which you can run multiple OS's. However the Peg and A1 hardware are so similar that as I see it you may eventually have two boards:
One runs: ThisLinux/ThatLinux(etc.) up to->MacOnLinux/MorphOS
The other: ThisLinux/ThatLinux(etc.) up to->MacOnLinux/AmigaOS4/AmigaDE
If you assume AmigaOS4-native apps get ported to MorphOS native (and vice versa) no particular disparity there. If you assume any OS that is ported to Peg is ported to A1 no disparity there. The "problem" is AmigaDE, especially if it means that the board promoted to be the one where you can run "all these OS's" is competing against the one that runs "all the same OS's and another one". |
