Which OS Would Be The Best Amiga Way Forward...

[CSixx]

I voted OS4 because it looks like it needed a bit more support in the poll. (Being a new OS4 owner)

However, in all truth, AROS is the way forward IMO, if nothing else than because it's open-source. Targetting x86 helps make it accessible also.

@CSixx
sounds really like a valid reason to support os4. any other thoughts?

I have yet to receive it (I just purchased the classic 4.1). Once I've installed and had a bit to play, I'll definitely be posting my thoughts.

Do you run OS4 on your A1200 060/PPC with Mediator PCI busboard/Voodoo graphic card and SoundBlaster audio card?  And you also can run OS3.9 with this system config?  (awesome A1200 BTW!)

Actually that's all this machine has run so far. OS3.9 works great, and from what I've read, is even more supportive of the hardware than OS4.1 will be.

I've already purchased a Radeon card to replace the voodoo and I'll have to get a new sound card for OS4.

if you replace voodoo with radeon you will have to resign on warp3d on os3.9/68k side.

Thanks for the warning, however this machine will be OS4 only. I don't want to complicate things trying to dual-boot, plus I have a couple other machines running OS3.9.
