@cgutjahr: >Trixies statement to which I replied was (he thinks) "OS4 never competed >with..." - and that's simply not true.
Ok, then this was a misunderstanding from my side. Of course, there where times when AmigaOS4 (or better the developers behind the project) tried to establish an alternative to other OSes and in some sort trie to compete with other OSes. I hoped the best in 2001 but it was clear - even with a miracle - that the IT-world already has moved along too fast for us.
And nevertheless: It was too little and too late by 2001. Amino/Amiga INc. gave the impression that they had the manpower, money and will/vision to turn around the situation for good, but we all know that wasn't true. _________________ AmigaOne X5000/40, 2.2 Ghz, 4 GB RAM, Radeon R9 280X, M-Audio Revolution 5.1, 240 GB SSD |
