Whatever happened to the promised support for PowerUp? While people are discussing the meaning of "promise" and "support" I want to ask what the final outcome of MorphOS for PowerUP machines is. web archive (20030602171643) of www.morphos.net/support.php3. Was it ever promised? Not? Versions? Support? When? The mention of CSPPC and BlizzPPC was there for more than 3 years before it vanished when morphos.de/morphos.net became ..uhm.. genesized. :)

Well, we need an excuse to make people buy new stuff.
Look at the AT standard, hunderds of millions of PC's used powersupplies with the AT connectors, then Intel said, fuck that, we want ATX now, in about 1 year it became hard to find AT powersupplies, and well, if your PSU died without taking the rest out, you'd have to retrofit an ATX psu with adaptors, if your reseller had them, that is, if not, well, new pc's were getting cheaper.
It's commerce, nothing more, nothing less.
(To those USB supporters out there running a crappy OS (Windows), i hope you never have knackered USB support, 'cause you'll wish you owned a PS/2 keyboard then |
