Wasn't the difference just about one product? If so, perhaps...

Furthermore H&P will stop the sale of some of H&P's Amiga products. |

Think what you like about H&P, the Amiga needs Storm, ArtEffect and the like to carry on being developed. _________________

| Hmm. Pagestream is H&Ps bestseller? But they don't make Pagestream
Anyway, controversy around H&P aside, I'm glad to see packages such as StormC, ArtEffect and AmigaWriter will continue to be developed, as this can only be a positive thing for the Amiga community. _________________ Playstation Network ID: xeron6

| It was about H&P not paying Amiga Inc royalties for AmigaOS3.9 and AmigaOSXL sales. Something which could be avoided if there was more money to make within the Amiga market.Let's hope OS4 will change this.
This is very positive news! |

| @ xeron
They do sell Pagestream tho, I upgraded to version 4.0 from 3 some time back via H & P, it was the easier solution for those that lived in Europe.
I would like to see Art Effect developed further as it is a fine package & has a lot more potential.
Amiga Writer I feel needs to be updated/fixed as it too has masses of potential. It is the only word processor that has had any recent development on the Amiga. My favourite Final Writer has unfortunately stopped being in development long ago (when Godon Harwoods left the Amiga scene) and Wordworth too (when Digita left the Amiga scene). _________________ SAM 460 with 2GB or RAM, 1000GB HD, 4 port SATA, DVDRW drive and Radeon HD 4650 GFX card.

Recently bought Final Writer 97 and I must say I'm surprised how well it works.
It's a pity that there won't be a 4.0 version.

Agreed. Art Effect and AmigaWriter are very welcome.
StormC is interesting. Presumably this would provide developers with the much sort after IDE for GCC, perhaps taking the pressure of Hyperion to provide such a solution, and allowing them to concentrate on 4.1  |

| Nice to hear that ArtEffect will come to OS4. I was wondering about that already. I always liked H&P. Good to hear that they are moving forward with new (updated) products. |

| I would love to see ArtEffect and the other stuff on OS4. For Pagestream things are looking good, that we will see it soon running on OS4. And then, we might see soon Real3D, maybe Imagine and AudioEvolution on OS4... 
But to remain on topic: I derive from the posting that H&P will keep selling AmigaWriter, but they don't seek any programer for the porting. Is someone already working on it?

| Haage and Partner should have stopped the sale of one very important piece of software a long time ago.
Because they didn't, I don't share everyone else's excitement here.
I'm not interested.
Period. |

| The question is, will they get exclusive rights to the compilers modified by the Friedens (essentially making gcc-amigaos4 payware), or will they just be content to provide a good programmers' editor and a GUI for GDB?
Can anyone from Hyperion comment? |

I agree that the handling of that situation was, how can i say, not the best i have seen. How ever it was sometime ago now, and lets be frank, the Amiga needs as much software as it can get.
H&P may not have been the best in that mess, but lets let bygones be bygones. _________________
