    The Avangate link for 3.1.4 went down on Hyperion's website, to be replaced by a totally different pay company, MyCommerce. Not only that, but a huge legal barf of dubious legal enforcability appeared, and I'm hearing reports that pricing in dollars is no longer available.

    Goes to show how times change. When MorphOS came out, Hyperion and its fanboys, and Haynie, tried to call it a pirate OS. Yet no legal challenge ever happened, no judge ever said anything about it, and there was never any problem paying for it. You never had to send secret squirrel emails to Ralph or Frank or pretend you were in a different country.

    Contrast this to Hyperion, who were very possibly illegally selling copies of OS4 while they were struck off the Belgian register, and are now very possibly illegally selling copies of 3.1.4 - a brandname they never owned, yet have repeatedly abused, and is currently in legal dispute.

    So it turns out that 3.1.4 and 4.1 are the true pirate OS's. Let's hope karma finishes the job and ends this truly awful company quickly.
