I'm sorry if this has already been covered/answered but... what about Hyperion?



They're in for a mess now probably, regarding the X1000 launch...



Why should they?
What mess are you talking about?
Those, who wanted to buy the A1X1000 (like me) will buy it nevertheless - regardless of Commodores old idea of AIOs - this time with Intel inside.
And those who were moaning from the beginning that the A1X1000 is way too expensive for them won't.
Easy as that - nothing changed so far by Commodores announcement.

Its just that the fanboys of names now seem to get something that possibly serves their needs.

Those who wanted tha AmigaOS on x86 will be disappointed if they're name fans - there obviously will be no x86-AmigaOS.
Just the x86 Amiga-like OS AROS - but that has been around a couple of years now and even has its own hardware: AresOne.
Commodore not necessarily required here...

Can't say I feel much sympathy because it's a mess themselves are responsible for. Even without this announcement, the first thing I thought when I read about X1000 was - FAIL!



I have no idea where your resentment against Hyperion stems from - but know rather precisely where my resentment against AInc/McBill (and all endeavours where they're somehow involved in) originated.
Keyword: Coupon scam and subsequent frauds.
