And they would most likely tell us that it is because of economic reasons and priorities.


They have been sitting on a gold mine(AROS) and did nothing... Could have used AROS code and do a x86 AMIGA OS4... Nobody in the community would say a thing against it!!! Add a customized x86 board and voila... Hyperion amigaone x86

And what did they do? Went with an outdated and overpriced hardware all in the name of some specialness... Now when somebody did what was needed to be done YEARS ago, they have a problem with it. I'm not disputing there may be illegal stuff to what amiga and commodoreUSA did, I'm just disputing their reasoning over x86 in the first place.

I say they brought this one on themselves... the market was there, AROS was there, everything was laid up for them and they said no.
