The Workbench 3.1 natural successor?
« on: February 22, 2010, 03:31:49 PM »
Which is the natural successor of Workbench 3.1?
I'm cleaning up all my old Amiga systems, just only to decide if they can be still useful of ready to be sold...
I'm reading about AmigOS 3.9 and 4.0 (or 4.1?); do they run on standard Amiga hardware or they need PowerPPC accelerator boards?

A very fast response, wow :)
There are still many Amiga users around, I see ;)

OK, I understand that the best solution for my A3000/040 and A1200/030 is AmigaOS3.9 but... What I can really do better with the new operating system than 3.1?

Thank you all for the response.
I will check the links you wrote for my attention about 3.9...
I'm slowly entering into that 'old' situation, where the computer is hot not for what I do with it, but hot for the look ;)
In the past I spent much of my time resizing windows, cleaning up the icons, optimizing the libraries, etc. etc. :-d

that reminds me of something thats been in my head for the past week: Why isn't there an amiga package manager? Its far from impossible.

I'm thinking about clrmamepro, I think it does the same with the mame rom sets.
