way back in 1989 I paid $2000 for my Amiga2000 (the american dollar was worth more back then).

It has more than paid back my investment. And that's because it is a tool! and you should know that it's the Artist - and how he uses the tool that's important.

Invest in yourself and you will never be disapointed.

What makes you think David has left the MorphOS team?

I am suggesting the MorphOS team -all of them- do this separate from Genesi.

I doubt this too but if they could sell 10,000* copies at $50 a pop thats a lot of money even after tax. It would be enough to keep quite a few of them employed full time.

*This is why I suggest a Mac mini port.

I don't suggest they do it as a replacement for OS X, but as an extra which gives acess to additional applications, that way it wont annoy Apple too much.

Minator, the idea of a "MorphOS GmbH" isn't really new, but as Laire said. things are more complex than they appear to be.

I guess all ppl involved in MOS, be it coders or supporters, are highly interested in a further development of MOS.

Until a solution is found I continue to enjoy my Pegasos with MOS and am looking forward to a small user meeting this weekend with some nice mates and 5 Peggies ...

Actuly I don't give a damn how it should work, just sell it! I mean personally I have a hard time convincing myself to buy a 1000 Euro machin runing Linux. Hey my old Pentium II 300 MHz is enough to do that work. But MorphOS well it seam nice, if it is ported to Mini Mac I might even buy a mini Mac instead of a Peg II. But I do not like the mini thing

The important thing is SELL SELL and SELL. Use old version be free to play around with so that testing the OS is possible.

For those people thinking that all this is BBRV fault, you might ask yourself how many Pegasos bord has been sold? if less than 10000 you might ask yourself if it isn't time to change focus in the buisniss to save the company.

And for those who didn't understand I do NOT blame the MOS-team either I just think that they shall sell the OS instead of bundling it with a speciall hardware.

The last figure I heard about 2000 Peggy's were sold.

I suppose at least half of these are running Linux
MorphOS GmbH would never have a big market..

And besides.. Who on earth would use MOS over OS X?

I would definitly have Morphos over osX, Any day!
What are you doing on a Morphos related site if you don't even like Morphos? And why do you even bother posting that?
Get on a mac forum instead..

Sorry.. I couldnt help myself.

I have 2 osx machines here (both ibooks) and my Peg2 runs OSX panther. I run MOS as my main os and barely touch the other boxes. I also have a really fast custom XP Pro box.

MorphOS is much more fun and productive (and faster) than any other OS here..

Oh and I run Linux on the peg too.

So, I feel MOS is better... now if you want to talk apps thats another story. YOu can beat high end apps like Final Cut Pro, Pro Tools, Imovie and such... the only things mos doesnt have Video editing

There are many MorphOS users that have Macs and PC's. I've not seen many posts on here from people who 'don't like MorphOS'. I'd assume that most on this forum have Peg's and like MorphOS.

MorphOS is an excellent, but not complete OS. OSX is an excellent, complete OS.

I'm not sure that I care much for the growing 'if you don't like the current situation, please leave' attitude.

So MOS really isn't more productive. Great OS though.

i lot of people like myself would buy mos if it wa avaible on the mac, there must be say hundred thousand ex amiga users using macs who would be intersted for novelty nostaligia sake..

as for bbrv.. man those guys need to lay of the coke...

Quote:

Count me in here. :) Would the port be that difficult considering that NewWorld Macs are OpenFirmware machines. I'd buy MOS for the Mac, and I'd be willing to pay over $50 for it.

LOL!

That's why there's PEPSI!

Will you tell me what "BBRV" stands for please?

Bill Buck / Raquel Velasco duo.

sell it for 500$
so we won't have to buy 100 copies
