And not the user of AmigaOS (later MorphOS / AROS) which was actualy thing that made Amiga Amiga on software side? You do understand OS`s can migrate HW arhitecture and yet their users remain their users ... while computers are somehow just the wheels


i can very well refer to myself as aros user, while using aros on my amiga. but if i used aros on another hardware i would clearly have to refer to myself as aros user, even if (lets say) being "amigan" in my heart. i dont want to go deep into argument, what makes an amiga. even though my sorts are being imposed on being called "classic users" by so called "ng users" i prefer to stick to clear objective nomenclature and call bread "bread" and butter "butter". just that.

and for the matter if an os can migrate. yes it can. and the result is os4 (or morphos or aros for that matter). only amiga cant migrate, because it is an item. if there was a company behind, doesnt even matter if it was the genuine company, that would name their product "amiga", then we could talk about "amigas" apart from genuine commodore amigas. but there is not. why is this so upsetting and so hard to agree upon?

Its good to be cautious, but I really don`t see what was the future with 68k and CBM build custom chips. We do know CBM planned to abandon both, even AmigaOS sadly. So in some form for us its kindda good Commodore died. Twice, as all zombies.


there was and there is no future, neither with ppc nor 68k. if cbm has issued another completely incompatible computer under the name "amiga" it would be an amiga. but they have not. im not interested in disputing "what, if". the history is as it is, and we cant do anything about it but accept.
