>An Amiga inc fault..... not Hyperion or Eyetech one.
Well, that would be using pretty selective memory. I'm quite sure e.g. Ben Hermans made many overly positive statements that resulted in criticism. I find it hard to forget how Ben Yoris' estimate on OS4 release schedule was chastised (his estimate was late 2003 the earliest at a time when Hyperion said summer 2003 the latest) by Hermans as being overly pessimistic and here we are in middle of 2004 with only a pre-release just out the door...
However, that latter bit is certainly something to appreciate and thank Hyperion and the rest of the team for. So, thank you. However, one should not just go ahead and forget history, but also learn from it. Companies pursuing a future within and beyond this market would do well to look at the failures and successes of the past few years and take serious note.
While there was unwarranted criticism and unreasonable reactions (let us not forget them either), there was also a lot of warranted criticism that wasn't really appreciated when it should have been. |
