According to news from Amigart, the Friedens stated on amigaworld.net that (by now) only the lacks of graphics.library [..] prevents OS4.0 from booting by itself. [ Edited to remove ambiguous wording. - CK ]

Joanna, you're a Troll and you know it. Let's bet on when the Pegasos I....VI will finally be able to operate bug free and without a crippled FSB of 100Mhz. Let's bet on when the PegasosII will be available to end users ans state the year.
And I don't mean a picture of the first prototype by the end of september.

Can a moderator please correct the post? The Frieden brothers said on Amigaworld.net that: "The absence of a fully implemented graphics.library is currently the only thing preventing us from booting".
So not a word about bugs. They also said that the only thing they have to do is to replace the functions in the graphics library that are required but not provided by Picasso96. They HOPE have these functions implemented in september. (And to all the BMF's who want to post a where're the pictures of amigaOS4 booting on the amigaone on 1 September: yes, that could also mean the end of september).

You mean AmigaOS4 doesn't boot under it's own power yet? I thought it was in private beta supposedly? *Only* Graphics.library prevents it from booting, eek. I predicted 3rd quarter of this year for release, doesn't look like it's going to make it (3 more days).

You call Joanna a troll, and then going on to troll yourself against the other side, I would propose that you not match up the Pegasos/Bplan/Genesis track record with Amiga Inc./Hyperion/Eyetech's records on delivery of product, it's not a favorable comparision toward the point you are trying to make by analogy.

I have also read this:

F.Bros.> - graphics.library is indeed a problem, and that's what we're working on right now.

If not bugs then it must lacks of some important features.

So you can assume them (the lacking features) same as bugs.

To all writers who support mainly MorphOS.

Sure OS4.0 at this state of the art suffers the same problems who had MorphOS in its early developing stage.

So why bother people of both platforms with annoying trolling?


And to help change our minds read further:


As a known italian ice-cream TV advertising said (here in Ita):

«TWO flavours is better than one...»


Morphos + AOS4.0 = more chanches for Amiga to live!

(Personal opionion.) I couldn't help but notice that the debate is getting more heated on the above-mentioned AW.net forum thread, and that attitudes similar to ANN.lu or Amiga.org are forming (some people trolling, other people over-reacting in defense). Which amuses me in a way, seeing how a handful of people adopted a "better than you" attitude about AW.net when in fact it was just a matter of time before the usual suspects found their way over there, and started behaving the same way they did on the other sites.

Well I think everybody was well aware that trolling and whining would probably hit AW at some point. Guess it up to the moderation, whether it will continue or not.
I like both AW, A.org and ANN, all are diffrent and have their own strengths (and weaknesses).

Keep up the good work Christian :)

In reply to Comment 5 (MIKE):
Genesi delivered no pruduct to end users. All they delivered is an BETA PPC mainboard with bugs to people talking the risk and being able to live with the bugs. Also MorphOS isn't for sale but since it's beta, it's bundled with a BETA Pegasos for free to get betatested and therefore only available to betatesters. So to summarize this once again: The Pegasos never got passed the Betatester status and can't therefore be called a product. Everyone denying this simple fact is just searching for reasons to troll at Hyperion because AmigaOS4 is not finished yet.

Don't worry Chris. it is only the first messages. the level of the thread it will soon raise on about 20-25 with some intelligent postings.

And I also bet a coffee with you that around msg. 75 (from 75 to 100), if we will reach that limit, the technicians will start to talk about -C- statements about on what works and what doesn't works on OS4 graphics library.

As far as I can see, only 1 person was trolling on AW.net and that was simply a case of him trying to state things that he clearly knew nothing about and was corrected by the Friedens. Now look at this thread again and I think you'll find the negastive remarks are being made by the usual suspects in an attempt to undermine the work on OS4.

See the difference now or do I have to be more specific?

No that does mean that "We thought it was old news" and that AmigaOS4 will crash and burn soon. It also means that there's no Mai without April and even that We have aqcuired AmigaInc and that we will get rid of Bill McEwen and Fleecy. It even means that the PegasosII is ready for production in september and that AmigaDE is currently ported to the Pegasos. Also effort is underway to get AmigaOS4 running on the PegasosII and we have won the lawsuit against AmigaInc...and so on and so on....

As you see, I can say enough things about Genesi as well. So what's your point.

That's not what I meant.

You can be sure I would be the first to wish for these pointless flame wars to go away.

What I was commenting on is that a handful of people thought that staging an exodus to a different site was the solution, when it should be clear that the problem is caused both by the parent companies, and their followers, and will always remain the same no matter on which website they are discussed (if that website provides a balanced view and doesn't restrict discussions to one side of the story - which obviously works in both ways).

Anyway. I've been spending too much time on here already. Time to do other, more important things. (Like, catch up on sleep.)

Sorry but that is UTTER rubbish. MorphOS, the Pegasos, Genesi, and anyone who has anything to do with them, are repeatedly flamed, personally insulted, and have false rumours or just plain lies said about them on amigaworld.net. this is generally accepted (if not encouraged) by the moderators there.

Conversely, anything remotely negative about Amiga Inc or Hyperion is immediately and without exception moderated away, or blasted from all sides with cries of "FUD", "Troll", "Liar", and so on. "Just ignore him, he uses MorphOS".

THAT, and only that, is the reason you don't see flamewars on Amigaworld.net - you simply are NOT allowed to have an opinion of your own - you either toe the pro-Amiga Inc / pro-Hyperion line or it's not even worth registering.

And that comes as a suprise when you start flaming AmigaInc,AmigaOS4 and the coders of AmigaOS4 on an Amiga site?
Why are some people to blind to see that you shouldn't visit a Amiga site if you don't like the Amiga?
What do you think what happens when I start flaming Genesi and MorphOS on www.morphos-news.de? I'm getting censored and moderated like never seen before and guess what? I fully agree with them I don't even expect them to do anything else, because i'm posting my rants in the wrong place.

Amiga.org ("thanks" to Wayne) and ANN.lu (Former Amiga News Network) chose to be "neutral" and allow both parties to speak freely. Well, then it's only natural that the place turns into an battle zone because of the simple fact that there's one natural successor of AmigaOS and the Amiga in general, and a another party trying to undermine that position. So two rivals are born. And rivals don't drink a beer with each other, they fight. And as long as Webmasters don't pick a side, but want to remain "neutral" or as long as no rival dies. The battle will continue and dedicated sites will filter the spam of the other side out.

This happens to Amiga.org (formally called an BAF site, by BGF's when it was in the red corner) and here on ANN.lu (after it was changed from Amiga News Network to the meaningless ANN), while MorphOS-new.de, Morphzone and amigaworld.net remain more or less clean.

Okay, I'm sure you've probably said the same about MorphOS threads that got too heated too, but "we" don't get too many chances to post stuff.
