ermm check this link then: http://amigaworld.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=1444 here it says that anyway.... and its done by HYPERION and its NEWS not forum talk.

That was the original announcement that the prerelease was expected to arrive on a certain date... the news item I'm talking about is on amigaflame.com and says the cds have arrived and are about to be sent out to dealers. This was never announced officially, it was just mentioned in one of Rogues posts. No real harm done here, but I just think we shouldnt post everything Rogue says in the forums as news items. Thats all.

Help? I am not sure what you mean? I did not announce anything . . . read what is at http://www.amigaflame.com/amihypos.htm

I know you didnt, I'm referring to all amiga users in general, and in this particular case, the guy who runs amigaflame.com.

If this is correct then I do not understand how that would "put off" any developers, it would be true. That is okay. But if it is not true then they may be "put off". But I thing we would like to know that?

What if plans dont work out the way they had hoped.. people might say "but in this news story you said blah blah blah was going to happen.." ..I dont know. Maybe I'm wrong. I seem to be making a big deal out of nothing, so I'll just drop it now.

Ok, tks for clearing that... this is now dropped by me as well.

@Rogue

Well I dont think its difficult to judge. You know how many A1s were sold and that is no where near as many Cyberstorms out there. Anyway, what is the answer to the question of when the Cyberstorm version is to come out please?

Everyone who wants to get hold of AmigaOS 4 can have it, even if it is only prerelease. 5. The trolls who pop up here and there can't argue about the product not being available. Of course they will find another arguments as always. I am not optimistic that anything can stop them, but at least they have less weapons now.

Hi drhirudo,

I agree with everything you said, and #1 is particularly important. No more vapour (fog)!!!! (Wired Magazine will have to kick someone else around next year! )

As for #5, now the trolls have to BUY an AmigaOne and use it, before they can make fun of it*!!!!


Hi vortexau,

Hehe. "Battle Beneath the Earth". I have no clue whether this is available on VHS or DVD.

Hi dimmck,

13 years? THAT was a great investment, eh? How long were PII 200 MHz useful for?

BTW, did you know that Pagestream is coming out in an AOS4.0 native version? I don't have an AmigaOne, but I sent them a cheque for the Professional version on Friday May 7th, for when

Too late for me to ask if you recommend it.


AmigaOne! AOS4.0! 50,000 users, one year from now!

Well Hyperion may call in the Belgian army for their defence. All that may be required is to flood the tunnel. Now, where is the Rhine?

How many of those are still in use? How many of them still actually work? Of those Cyberstorms "out there" how many are in cupboards, landfills and DCE's shed?

Perhaps it isn't so easy to judge?

This sound oh-so familiar to some previous posts about the number of AmigaOnes sold.

@Uncharted

Oh you had to got there huh? You mean the fact that there are very few A1s out there and the FACT NO ONE will release the data about how many are sold. I firmly believe that this is because it is less than the competition's Pegasos. I know ALOT of Amiga dealers that sell both and have a general idea of how many units are out there so i'm not just grabbing at straws with this. AND UNTIL they release the numbers I will feel this way. Many people in the know (Dealers and devs) know there are more pegasos machines than A1 boxes out there so I dont know what to tell you or where you get your data.


ANYWAY

That is OT and why start that up? I just speak the FACTS..

My question is WHEN WILL THE CYBERSTORM VERSION COME OUT? I'd like to purchase it so I can run OS4 on my 4000.

realize

@realize

Sheesh here we go again.

You BELIEVE there are fewer A1s. Please stop trying to pass it as FACT, until we know from official sources and not some hear say. Until then nothing you say about A1 numbers is FACT.

Please no more arguing about A1 numbers.

Thanks

One of the show videos has Alan on record as saying "in the region of 1000 units". That was back in November? February? (I can't remember which video it was on). With the pre-release imminent I suspect there has been a small surge in the number of units sold recently, but probably not significant.

How many Pegasosses have been sold? (NB: sold not given away)

I did not go anywhere, I didn't even mention Pegasos.

I was merely pointing out that the number of potential CyberstormPPC customers is not known. I was also commenting how you wording reminded me of your previous rude, obnoxious posts here.

Can you answer those questions with and reasonable degree of certainty? With evidence? (Personal belief and heresay doesn't count). Next time perhaps you should engage in some brain activity before making such bold statements, and being such a know-it-all plum to the developers. You might find you will get a better response.

P.S. using CAPS doesn't make anything any more true.
