- No TCP/IP stack included. Getting software onto your Pegasos is a nightmare, unless you have an Amiga with a CD burner available. Also, using MiamiDX is problematic.
Well, MiamiDX works. I have tried it on my A1200 and on Pegasos and no problems so far. Miami 3.x is very problematic if you are using GadTools interface... It makes GUI extremely unstable.
- Theres no support for the floppy drive at all.
It can't read Amiga floppies anyway... But could be useful sometimes, true.
- No 3D drivers yet. You can play those 3D games - but only in software mode.
Yup.
- Ambient (WB replacement) is "years behind workbench".
I don't agree... WB itself is years behind everything. At least Ambient implements "sort by name" AFAIR.
- MOS is still not 100% stable. Stable enough for limited use (IRC, etc), but not nearly as stable as 68k AmigaOS.
It depends. On BPPC/CSPPC you get far less problems than on Pegasos because you have all that old HW there. Many programs are triggering non-existant hardware registers causing troubles and slowdowns. Illegal tricks wont work any longer! It could be good judge compare OS4 vs. MOS rather than MOS vs. OS3 (or OS4 vs. OS3).
If you think this is FUD, it's not. Consider it a little pressure on the MOS coders to get things right, for some friends. I'm sure they'll get it right soon, but they haven't yet.
