Rippin/raping the name for their own use.


If they have a valid trademark deal, they are legally dealing with this name.
Who stopped Hyperion, acube, a-eon,... into making a similar deal?

Name raping with money making and producing real Amiga experience for the community are totally different kind of things.
Hyperion cares for the later, you seem to care for the first.


I would choose not to answer this but if I were you I'd consider just how much hyperion is making me pay for that amiga experience.

You mean "licensing"? There are people that would say Hyperion is "raping" AmigaOS name. As long it's being licensed we're just guys on forums, arguing. I won't change a squat.

No. Both are businesses, one you like, the other you don't. I don't like it, too. Unless C= is doing something illegal you have no case against them.

You don't know that. Hyperion is OK with another "prepay for a beta board".

So you love also Bill Gates businesses because they made $$$?


So, you hate him because he made cash hand over fist?
