Yeah, good luck with that argument. The only ones who have spoken favorably about open source AmigaOS is Cloanto.

Can you imagine? No patches and the thing did what it was supposed to.

I'm really sorry, but I genuinely wasn't aware that it was broken beyond usability. Had I known, I really would have applied fixes.

Yeah, I too used my A500's for 4 years between 88 and 92 without any patches. Worked great!

Can we go back to arguing about Linux?

DamienD · 14 November 2018, 19:39

Can we get back on topic please?

They should have called it AmigaOS 3.4.1 then there would not have been any issues at all.

Now that's a very fancy disk label. You can tell the seller really worked hard on the design!

I must admit I've skipped on the last 20 years of Amiga coffuffle but who the hell are Itec?

Anyway this whole debacle makes me so sad.

What a mess.

Available again as digital purchase!

acidbottle · 21 November 2018, 19:30

i was thinking of purchasing the kickrom and disks from one of the partner sites.

would anyone happen to know if i do this i get access to a digital version right away?

thank you

krautguy · 21 November 2018, 22:13

Hi acidbottle,

I suppose the only way to get the digital version will be to buy the physical edition. I think the download will be activated for you if you register with your serial number from the physical edition on the Hyperion website. That's how the download of the previous digital-only edition went last month.

Today I got at least an e-mail that the status of my order has changed to "shipped". So I hope to be able to answer your question with 100% certainty soon.

greetings
krautguy
