(which IS happenning) just because a company files bankruptcy, doesn't mean it closed.

He said that OS 2 will be released after NAMM. Either late Jan or early Feb.

And you've got on alright with it for the past 6 months, so you'll get on ok with it for the next month and a half.

Just because I spent my money six months ago on akai, well that does not mean, I don't have to right to own the os by that point of time. I'd also payed the **** bucks for that same machine! ...and everybody knows, that this os is necessary + overdue.

and six months ago no one even knew about what's going to be on the new OS. in fact, six months ago there was no proof a new OS would be coming at all, other than what was in scratch magazine back in february. so we have to wait, so what.
don't go there.
