Jim isn't usually so hostile to new users. I think he just got wound up about the long debate regarding the Tabor board. But I don't dispute we have some "other" problem users, like all communities, the MorphOS user community has its share of bad apples. Unfortunately, no matter how often they are reminded that their bad behavior is harmful to the rest of the MorphOS users, they continue to behave like children, or worse. Thankfully, the number of "Bad" MorphOS users seems to be rather small, but also unfortunately, they are very active and vocal.

You should not let a handful of people with bad manners, stop you from enjoying MorphOS on your SAM460. There are plenty of "Good" MorphOS users and developers who are happy to help new users.

@thread: This is a "special purpose" forum thread, would be nice if personal issues between people are solved elsewhere.

2015 G5 Powermac
2015 G4 Powerbook
2015 G5 Powermac

These are estimates but are more than less accurate.

Thanks.

Thank you.
I never intended to allow my interactions with Spectre660 to get personal.
We just have significantly different opinions on the value Tabor represents.

And his posts regarding Linux have been quite useful.

Expect an updated graph soon.

Done. As usual - here's the PNG version and here's the PDF.

Still a pretty impressive curve considering

3240:
registered about a week ago.
MorphOS running on Quicksilver G4.

counter := counter + 1;

Seems like we finally reached the zenit.

Um... No, still almost 300 to go. Unfortunately it will happen anyway and I'll have to do a huge rework to the graph then. Sigh...

I meant that now the curve will start going down. Maybe. This might just be a slump.

> now the curve will start going down.

Huh?

Sorry, I meant leveling off.

Quote:

Why should it happen so suddently? Nah, we need more data.
By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you commit your reg numbers, Men of the Morph!

I think, the ISA change (when it happens finally and to PC) will ease to try MorphOS for people, who never did it before, and maybe will increase a bit the users count.

Quote:

It all depends. I wonder, for instance, if our registration keys will still remain valid for MorphOS 4.0 and above. If not - the graph will start all over again, with all the "dead" and multiplied keys null and void. Moreover, I doubt if anyone outside our tiny userbase would happily pay 100€ to register MorphOS. The price would have to be cut in a way Hyperion did with OS4 FE to appeal to someone.

Not necessarily, it all depends on what hardware will be chosen. If something quite popular then there is a chance. I think choosing "right" hardware will be much harder than switching architecture ;)

Personally I think the run would start, if there would be complete systems, including MorphOS, to buy for lets say 300-400€. Second I don't think that this hardware necessarily would have to be "highend" machines, as the OS is lean and quick enough for medium hardware too. In that case we would have, once more, a standardized hardware on which software developers could rely on and which would maybe attract developers on the other hand.
