No, cannot be a "CherryPal". Look, it doesn't even have the cherry logo. meet.mrnrg says so ;-)

No problem. There are many different kinds of humour.

Fact is, that he claims some bogus reasons why the C114 and the LimeBox/LimePCX1 shall not be the same.

My links refer to the discussions where meet.mrnrg desperately tries to promote his LimePC sales on eBay in general, including the device you pointed out.

> pointed out

This device has been offered by him since no later than May 22nd. Of my three links, the first one contains a discussion from completely before that date. So admittedly, this link can't be about that device. The second link refers to a news posting from after that date about "LimePC related products", so it definitely includes that device. The third link, albeit being dated after May 22nd, doesn't seem to include the device.

> Would I be a liar to say that you at least seem to be "shaping"
> words creatively here?

"LimePC related products" is not my choice of words, it's meet.mrnrg's. The device you pointed out is such LimePC related product as "LimePC" is the label the whole THTF's line of MPC5121e powered devices goes by.

> do or do not his comments in those discussions include the device
> I linked, the MID 3G? How about a "yes" or "no?"

No, they don't in the first and third discussion. Yes, they do in the second link.

Not explicitly, right. But as I already explained, it's about the "LimePC related products" offered by meet.mrnrg. The MID 3G as a member of the LimePC product family clearly qualifies as such.

> MeetMrNRG doesn't even link to it, he only links to the TV versions.

I was talking about the link in his AWN news item, not the link in his comment to that. And obviously, the link I referred to now leads to a page with a content different from the content back then. Specifically, the MID 3G was present in his linked eBay store.

> I guess you are mistaken.

No, I'm not. I stand by my claim that my second link refers to an incident where meet.mrnrg desperately tried to promote his LimePC sales, including the device you pointed out.

No, it was meet.mrnrg himself talking also generally in that thread about *all* LimePC devices he offered in his store at this point in time, including the MID 3G. So, yes, his comments about the general LimePC family clearly include that device. And no, they don't include an explicit denotation of it, but that's not what you asked for, and not what I claimed for that matter.

> Anybody reading can go and check and word-search your second link
> and not find any reference to the MID 3G.

Maybe you'll grasp it with the help of an example:
One can talk about Genesi PPC mainboards refering to Pegasos I, Pegasos II and Efika only with mentioning the hypernym term "Genesi PPC mainboards". Would you really claim this didn't include either Pegasos I, Pegasos II or Efika just because these terms are not explicitly mentioned?
Likewise, meet.mrnrg in his comments (yes, now I really mean the comments of said thread) about his "LimePC related products" refers to the MID 3G he was offering via his store as well as to all other LimePC devices he offered back then.

> Rather than just admitting that none of your links said anything
> about the MID 3G

Yes, I won't "admit" that because I'm not going to lie. I will however admit that the *term* "MID 3G" was not mentioned. But then, that's not what I claimed. So, no retraction from my side.

> you say that oh on that amigaworld.net page there is a link to his
> eBay store and it was there that one would find the MID 3G.

To understand which LimePC devices meet.mrnrg was refering to in his news item and in his comments where he talked about his LimePC offerings in general, you had to check the link to his store. And the MID 3G was there. Thus, the MID 3G was very well included when he commented about his LimePC offerings.

> But if this were really what you were saying, then why wouldn't you
> just link his eBay store directly?

Because his eBay store (of which I thought you knew already) was *not* what I wanted to show you in the first place. I wanted to show you his AWN news item (and discussion) about his LimePC offerings, including the MID 3G. You may remember my claim that "meet.mrnrg desperately tries to promote his LimePC sales". His AWN news item is an evidence for that, the mere existence of his eBay store clearly isn't.

> Are we supposed to check not only the pages you link, but each page
> linked to on the pages you link?

See, if someone talks about several things using a hypernym denotation of those things, to know what things he specifically talks about you have to do yourself the favor of checking it out. Simple as that. And checking in our specific case would have meant looking up the LimePC devices meet.mrnrg offered via his store. Else, how would you know that his comments about his LimePC offerings didn't include the MID 3G? I think you already knew about the MID 3G being offered by him, but still you insist on the MID 3G not having been included in any of his comments about his LimePC offerings.

> further this explanation makes absolutely no sense at all because
> you responded to my comment which already linked (and still does)
> to the eBay picture of the MID 3G!

Yes! That's exactly why I concluded that you already know his eBay store. What's making no sense, again?

> So we already knew that he had the MID 3G on eBay.

Again: I wanted to show you his AWN news item, not his eBay store of which I already had concluded that you know it.

> The question was ""In other words, do or do not his comments in
> those discussions include the device I linked, the MID 3G?"

To get to the point:

"As well as the new PPC NoteBooks and PPC TV and PPC X1's etc..."
"As far as suppliers, they are the well know Amiga suppliers and for others LimePC"
"More supportive of this PPC, because it's FreeScale PPC design."
"Besides as far as I know, there is no money to port AmigaOS4.x to LimePC..."
"MiniMig and AmigaOS4 and SamFlex are in stock, so for Amiga people not interested in other PPC technology right now, that's for them to decide. In 6-12-18 months if Lime PPC product sales are large enough then hey, presto, Hyperion could be then convinced there's a market, once it exists. Even then they might not have time or money for these products."

...are the phrases of his comments which include the MID 3G (highlighting added by me).

> your repeated mischaracterization of my words "*a* gfx *coprocessor*"
> to "*the* graphics *core*" including after I asked you not to do it.

It was not about your ambigous words but about the self-contradicting *meaning* behind these words *after* your explanation as to what you allegedly meant. Up to now, you did not manage to resolve those contradictions.
And just because you asked me not to scrutinize ("word-twist" in your words) your self-contradicting postings any longer doesn't mean I'm obliged to obey.

> Here, you just throw up smoke screens and evasive

Where exactly?

> misleading language in answer to a direct question

I'm not a native English speaker, so my language may very well be lacking. Would you mind continuing our discussion in the "Deutsche Foren" here on MZ?
However, by now I even answered your direct question in such a detailed way that you had not even asked for.

> because you won't admit you're wrong.

"Admitting" I'm wrong would equal a lie.

> I deny your sorry and baseless accusation that I lied.

Of course, that's exactly what a liar would be expected to do :-P

Yes, I hope that others are going to see who is the obfuscater here who is distracting whenever it's getting to the point.

As you obviously missed it in your typical ignorance, start reading between

"To get to the point:"

and

> I saw the one where you bolded "etc."

Fine, that one's a beginning. What about the other 6? Not seen? Then look again, they're there, really.

> So your answer in part to "In other words, do or do not his
> comments in those discussions include the device I linked, the

It's not *the* answer, it's a tiny part of the answer (1/7th, to be precise). If you look closer, you'll discover the other 6/7th. But then again, even 1/7th would be sufficient to answer your question positively. So my answer is 600% overloaded. How's that?
As for the "etc.": He talks about his LimePC offerings, naming the "NoteBooks", the "TV" and the "X1's" explicitly. So it's obvious that "etc." means all his other LimePC offerings he didn't name explicitly, including the MID 3G.

> You're fooling less and less people all the time.

I didn't fool anyone in the beginning, I don't fool anyone now. That's not "less and less" but rather constant.

No, I didn't know that you were asking if these links contained the word "MID-3G". Groups of things include the things they consist of by definition.

No, it's simple logic.

Exactly. Dare to answer my question from 10 days ago? It went like:

One can talk about Genesi PPC mainboards refering to Pegasos I, Pegasos II and Efika only with mentioning the hypernym term "Genesi PPC mainboards". Would you really claim this didn't include either Pegasos I, Pegasos II or Efika just because these terms are not explicitly mentioned?

No, that's simple logic.

Addendum:

> the e700 route isn't pursued by Freescale anymore for a long time.

Funnily, in the following presentations from February 2010 the e700 is listed under "future" products:

http://www.power.org/events/designcon10/B1._Power.org_DesignCon2010_Power.org_Busienss_Panel_BF-W3_Behmann.pdf (page 10)
http://www.power.org/events/designcon10/E1._DesignCon2010_Power.org_Power_Architecture_Advanement_Fawzi_Behmann.pdf (page 7)

And this presentation from June 2010 also lists the e700:
http://www.freescale.com/files/ftf_2010/Americas/FTF_ENT_F0770.pdf (page 65)

> Also power.org's Power Architecture Silicon Roadmap doesn't mention it anymore.

This roadmap has been updated in March 2010. As expected, the e700 hasn't returned though ;-)

Edit: added another PDF file.
