The MUI for AmigaOS development team is proud to announce the immediate release of version 4.0-2016R3 as well as 5.0-2016R2 of the Magic User Interface for AmigaOS4/PPC and AmigaOS3/m68k.
Errrmmm - excuse my ignorance - but why would anyone care for version 4, if he alreaday can have Version 5?
What is the benefit of v4 here over v5?
If you release a v5, there should be absolutely no reason to release an older/infefrior v4 at the same time...

Please note that MUI4 and MUI5 for AmigaOS3/m68k are definitely targeted at powerful systems with a fast CPU and a fast graphic board. Although it is still possible to run this release on a real 68k machine...
I think I can count my A4k with CSPPC and Voodoo4 among the fastest classic Amiga real machines that were ever built.
Nevertheless there are rumors that a 68060 @ 50 mHz is not really sufficient?
Hmmmm...
