Re: New OS and Updates?

2002-08-26 by joesapo

I tried calling EMU the other day about the free ROM offer that I 
sent in for and never got.  They told me that the division of EMU 
that handled promotions and some other parts of the company were now 
being handled by Creative Labs.  It sounds like EMU is going through 
a major shake up or merger of some kind.  We can only hope that 
EMU/Creative will support their hardware as well as EMU did by 
themselves.  But if this is any indication I doubt I'll be getting 
that free ROM, I was on hold for almost 30 minutes before I was told 
call tomorrow in the morning.  If I had MY WAY... I'd want them to 
just open-source the OS.  I mean, you gotta buy the hardware for the 
OS to work...  and just imagine all the hacks people out there could 
come up with.
