Just in case you didn't noticed:: 'Crisot' (the same guy who released the 'pegasos in the toilet' video some time ago, about we laught a lot) released a video which shows current status of OS4 (please check the previous posting here on ann.lu). I have watched this video now again and again and it's normal to come to the conclusion that it's faked. No, not the content, but the speed. The framerate is not correct/realtime, it was made faster. You can spot this easily by watching the mouse movements of the user for example.
Is OS4 so bad that's required to release a video which is 'faked' in such way? I don't think so. And yes, I agree that the Prerelease isn't "the fast thing" i expected to get for my A1.
It makes me a little bit sick how some users are operate to spread 'propaganda'. Isn't it bad enough already that OS4 is so much behind the competition in same market. Now MorphOS users laugh at me for beeing a loyal amiga user. :-\ I'm already happy with the Prerelease, but I hope thing will become a lot faster, but such video is useless.
This is a request to all: please keep such stuff out of this community. When you release a video then release a video which shows true facts. It's from absolutly no use to 'lie' by publishing false information. In the end the normal user is the only stupid.
Crisot, release a proper version of your video to stop this! Thanks.
@kemp:
Sorry for posting over anonymizer, but i have reasons to keep my IP/ identity secret for now. Thanks for your understanding. But I feelt it is required to bring this to public discussion. :\

What about it? During the 0.5 seconds or so it's spinning, it looks like it should - at 15 fps.

Now you're just being silly. As the guy who wrote IB, you ought to know that loading speed is *heavily* dependent on eg. the size of the browsing history file. On one machine it might take 1 s, on another machine with the same specs 15 s or more.

Which is why the speed doesn't suck as much in this new video, even at it's apparently proper speed of 15 fps. So?

My, what an interesting and funny point. Now if I could only understand the relevancy of it.
> Your credability is soon reaching below zero
Speaking of credibility, I'm just happy this video is just the product of an overzealous luser, and as such doesn't harm the AOS4 effort (it could have, if the deception hadn't been exposed here and it had been let loose "in the wild") and not Yet Another "official" shenanigan.

Luckily I haven't seen Ben Hermans, Fleecy, BBRV or any of the other clan/clown leaders post here for a while now... There's an alternate reality portal for each cult now, so as far as discussions go, ANN and other non-cultist-only sites offer the best content. The Samface/Eva cretin types are easily identifiable and ignored, as opposed to other places where they're the imposed norm. |
