Oh great!

So Bill Buck has been banned for daring to post that he actually wants to do something in order to have hardware running OS4 and for actually having the hardware that could run it!

This whole fricking community is startng to stink to igh heaven. Some people here need to learn to grow up ad bury the hatchet. I saw him take far more "insults" i that other thread than he dished out, and while I strongly disagree with the way he worded some remarks, if we're all hding our beaths for these bloody Trokia/Samantha/Vixen boards then were all going to turn blue in the face and suffocate!

I actually pre-ordered an orginal A1 board and then withdrew the order due to production delays. All of this time I've been waiting for a solid PPC board that comes with OS4 and I'm still waiting. It's time to wake up and smell the coffee folks. If we don't have something soon then we never will. If Bill Buck thinks he can get a license then let him try. Those who hold the rights to OS4 should not hold back for personal reasons, but move forward for business reasons. If the whole offer turns up to be yet another attempt to blow smoke up this community's collective ass then flame away at this guy.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm tired of waiting and I'm tired of broken promises. I've bought countless laptops and desktops as I've waited for new Amiga hardware. I've got 2 A1200T and an A3000 gathering dust while waiting for a potential Vixen board. I don't want to see the years of work that have gone into OS4 be for nothing, but unless we get hardware soon (and Bill has WORKING hardware) then we run the risk of ending up with bugger all.

The EFIKA "thing" doesn't run those now, but who knows about the future? Anyway, that's probably irrelevant. I was told in the past that the point of posting here wasn't to sell computers, but to help build momentum in power.org. I guess people can decide for themselves if or how anything said in this thread might mesh with that. bbrv started the thread by asking "Is there anything else?" and I hope after 37 pages the question has been answered.
