Hmm, maybe I'm wrong in this, but didn't that "purchase OS4.1 as digital download" link on
Hyperion's website take you to
Cloanto's webshop before, where you could buy OS4 for PowerUP/UAE PPC? It still takes you to their webshop, but I can't seem to find OS4 there? I think I recall seeing it there a couple of days ago though, when I was looking for Cloanto's Workbench package for Amigas, but maybe I'm hallucinating...? Or maybe it was never there, but somewhere else...? Anyone remembers...?
No, I'm pretty sure it was there! Looks like things aren't friendly between the 2 companies after all, like some of the rabid apologists were insisting.
HYPErion vs Cloanto lawsuit next?
-Edit-
Yup, it
SURE WAS!!
