| Hi,
I'd like to know if there is any plan to bring back online http://www.amigaos4.com ?
I think it is very important to have an official website, no?
Notably for new comers or interested people.
Previous content was very good.
Now that things are clearer, is it planned?
Does anybody know? Maybe Hyperion MP?
Thanks.

It belongs to a bloke in Oxfordshire, Stuart Elliot, an Amiga Geek. Maybe he'll put something up on it. |

Domain servers in listed order:
NS.HYPERION-ENTERTAINMENT.BIZ
ROBOTNS2.SECOND-NS.DE

Great news! I would have thought www.amigaOS.com would have been more useful in the long run though! It's for sale but probably for a high price._________________

| Why call it amigaos4.com??? Isn't it better to have it called amigaos.com?
I mean when they release OS5 the OS4 site will be obsolete.. Then users will have to enter
different sites for OS information..

Since AmigaOS is a registered trademark wouldn't it be pretty easy to get hold of amigaos.com?
I have seen many cases where domain hawks had to return a hijacked domain. Apart from that I guess amigaos.com wouldn't even cost much. _________________

What about "www.amigaos.eu" or "www.amigaos.biz", those are still available.
Look here: link. Last edited by Dirk-B on 07-Nov-2009 at 09:47 AM.

Depends who releases it. If Hyperion then yes it will replace OS4. If Amiga then OS4 is still current with us as that is a different product. |

Only Hyperion can release OS5 that's part of the settlement.

maybe Hyperion instead of calling it AOS5 will call it "AmigaOS4 5.0" this way they will be able to use the same domain name  |

A simple redirect would take care of that. Once they decide to go to a different name for the website, just use a redirect for the old domain name and point it to the new one.
An example would be if you go to playstation2.com or playstation3.com, they will redirect you to playstation.com without any additional input from you.

| @all,
Still no official website on AmigaOS 4 
It is very difficult to introduce a system to "outside world" if there isn't any official website. the first thing people ask me is: "on which website"?
As I already said, the previous amigaos4.com content was very good to show adavantages and features of AOS4.
Anyone from Hyperion?
IMHO, it is a very importantthing to do, no?

| Maybe Hyperion won't call the next evolutionary step of their OS "Amiga OS 5", but something different. Like "Amiga OS V", or "Amiga OS Encore", or whatever...
It would certainly generate more interest than a just adding a "5". "Amiga OS 5" has some not so good connotations anyway after all that weird stuff happening with A inc. |

You mean this: http://elwoodb.free.fr/os4/
I got the files a very long time ago. I even translated a part of it in french but Hyperion didn't seem interested. _________________
