I see you're in the UK. Well, we're organising an OS4 on tour date in a month or so, where you can come along and try it for yourself. That is, if you can get down to the south west...

I might if work commitments don't clash. (assuming when you say south west its not lands end!)  Besides people in the south are weird! :crazy: (i.e. Get of my land, in a farmers accent)

Is the AmigaOne and such like, off the shelf components, and thus the OS(s) are platform independant? If so this is a good move, of course I feel sad the custom chips have had their day, but IMHO it was the OS that made the Amiga.

No. Our first choice of venue is Bath university, but we have a backup plan. We're just waiting for confirmation, which we should get for today or tomorrow. I'll post news items all over the Amiga sites once its all set in stone.

The AmigaONE is a PowerPC ATX formfactor motherboard (and there is a Mini-ITX version with onboard radeon in prototype stage). You can use standard AGP graphics cards, standard PCI cards etc. provided there are drivers.

It currently runs Linux, and some lucky people have an alpha version of OS4 on it.
