    Myself like the vast majority here were Commodore Amiga users. It's been touched on here, but to expand slightly, MorphOS was originally going to be the official continuation of AmigaOS. It's been under development since the mid 90s. Due to scammy business dealing by shady companies, MorphOS ended up being its own thing, while years later an Amiga game company company secured rights to develop "AmigaOS 4", splitting the market and causing ugly Kommunity wars.

    The best developers and actual users moved on to the MorphOS side. The business men who wanted to squeeze every penny out possible out of the end users, and the end users who only cared about "the name" stayed with "AmigaOS 4".

    Those wars are pretty much dead, considering the OS4 platform is pretty much dead. Hyperion is penniless and embroiled in lawsuits, and the only updates are coming from a single third party company. You have to pay extra for drivers, after buying a $2k++ computer over there. How the end users do not start a class action lawsuit against Hyperion is beyond me.

    Anyhow, welcome! We have at least one other user (Jim) who did not come from the Commodore Amiga.
