Yet another PowerBook G4 MorphOS video
« on: December 31, 2009, 09:23:10 PM »
Here's a small video I made of current MorphOS development version (so called "3.0") on PowerBook G4:
PowerBook-G4-MorphOS-3-newyear-teaser.avi

This is on PowerBook G4 rev e, 7447B (or 7448, not sure which one) @ 1.67GHz, 2GB DDR2 RAM, 250GB HDD, DVD-RW, Radeon 9700M 128MB.

As always, the quality of the video could be better... :)

Happy New Year 2010 everyone!

so no P-Book support till 3.0?
My machines:
PowerMac G4 MDD 1.5ghz 1.25GB 10.5.8 & MOS 2.7
Mac Mini C2D 10.6.8 2GHz 3GB 250GB HDD
MacBook Retina 16GB 256GB SSD 10.8
iPad 2

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

The 3.0 there is just the version number used in the development branch. It has no relation to current or future MorphOS release versions. Except that we need to call it something else when we do release 3.0 :-)

I guess the 3.0 name is somewhat analogous to Debian sid?

(In other news, it's time for me to acquire a Powerbook!)

Long holidays are often quite fruitful, indeed.

Downloading this now. You know PowerBook support will be great for me, I can get one off freecycle or something and confuse the hell out of anyone who looks at the screen. And it'd be useful for college as well.

Also when you find yourself unable to connect to any wireless network? :)

@kolla

Seem a little nervous with morphos, this can be the first amiga-like OS running on a portable machine and you just jocking.

PD: HAM video on amiga rocks too.
