If Tabor project is cancelled and not released at all, this bet is null and void.



So, fellow AmigaWorld users, is there anyone brave enough to accept this bet?

@pavlor

a dangerous bet except you own a brewery

Tabor could have a future, but it all depends on driver development, and the ability to use cheapish hardware upgrades.
Prisma development pace doesnt give alot of confidence in that regard, BUT lets hope Aeonkits relativly recent focus on software will accelerate this.
Plenty of ram and high performance graphicscards could be enough to make Tabor intresting.
Noone is denying the Tabor specs are less than impressive, but that could be offset by Hans's and Daniels 3D development.

@pavlor

Just to clarify the conditions, does being released without finished OS4 support counts? Not very likely, but who knows. What kind of chocolate do you like?

I didn´t find chocolate I don´t like yet.


Edit: Release without OS4 means my bet is valid only if OS4 is later released before 2018, otherwise it is null and void.

Tabor can't be really canceled as the boards are allready produced (or did Trevor just buy the parts ???), but there is the possibilty that it will never be supported by OS4.

There is also the possibilty that it not being released by 2018 could be seen as it being canceled and vice versa, so yeh you should owe up to that possibilty.

@Kronos

without OS4?

a expensive PPC board running Linux and nothing else

That would hardly make sense

OK, final draft of my bet:

If I lose (release 2018 and later), I will give every winner bottle of best Czech beer.
If I win (release 2016 or 2017), those who lose will give me best chocolate of their choice.

Tabor release = available for sale INCLUDING AmigaOS (pre-order without delivery doesn´t count).
Tabor cancelled = free beer!

I will accept only first 10 contestants.



Anyone?

@pavlor

Hemm, what if it's just delayed to 2019

Me!

It was Czech beer that made me like the beer. It was October 2009 when I visited Czech first time (far far away in Olsany/Bludov/Sumperk) and before my visit I didnt like beer but Czech beer changed my mind.

OTOH we have the best chocolate made in Finland just few kilometers away from me. I dont mind sending some if I lose

And I agree. At least today. But once upon a time, an iron curtain was dividing Europe into two parts and the CZ and SK ware unified under a red star banner as the CSSR my elder sister (also a chocolate addict) visited Praha with her school class and she brought CSSR chocolate home with her - and that was rather unpleasant. Dunno how old you are, but you will probably know the CSSR chocolate situation way better than me. But that was the first time when I realized that, back then, the western part of Europe indeed has advantages (later I realized that there were a few more..).

Btw.: Best current chocolate from eastern europe i know of is Heidi Chocolate of Romania (indeed it's a foundation by Chocolatier Läderach). Really great and one of my favorite consumer brands (I mean 100 gr bars for less than 2.5 EUR). Unfortunately a bit hard to get hold of locally over here.
My usual "daily fix" actually comes just 20 km from home and is made by Storck.

Sorry for going OT, but chocolate, well, can't resist. Never!

Since I have never tried Czech beer, I will take you up on that one.
What type of chocolate do you prefer?
