We had the Red, then the Black, then the Blue, now entering into the ring, the gold.  I've been told to expect the first WIP ISOs around the New Year.  I'm hoping it will be both x86 and PPC.  2009 should be a very interesting year for the Amiga community. :popcorn:

Every year is more interesting than the last. I find it fascinating how many swings and round abouts the technology goes through. One thing is for sure though, if Microsoft do not address the performance issues in its operating systems, we may well see the resurgence of the players like the Macs and Amigas. It's happening already, but Amiga needs to step up to the plate to make hay while the sun is shining, otherwise, we will be reading about how good the Amiga always was and emulating it on our new intel machines :)


 :lol: Ah, remember hearing something like that back in the late 1990s as I was giving up on my trusty old Amiga and going to x86 Linux.  In a couple of months, or less, the nightmare for red, black and blue may come to reality. Go Dr.Schulz, go! :devildance:

Interesting, is this new 'Anubis' OS a fork of Aros?


No, a AROS fork was not possible with the limited man power at hand.  This is not an Amiga like OS, it's an Amiga inspired OS.  Some will not like it, but they probably wouldn't like anything beyond their existing favorite(s) so to each their own.  The initial WIP ISOs should not be considered the end product but mearly a point during a transitory shift.  Anubis OS is aptly named.
