Title: Amiga OS 5 prediction (Hardware)
Post by: jarroyo on October 10, 2007, 04:48:00 AM

This thread is to an extent a continuation of some comments / predictions I threw out there about what direction I feel A Inc should go; and this was extrapolated from comments Bill of A Inc has made about the future of the Amiga and OS 5.

Core to my prediction is the reliance of QNX as the micro kernel architecture that would host OS 5.

I want to encourage the community to note that at the very least, the hardware platform "slated" to be released and designed by ACK Systems is indeed a very powerful system.

To learn more about the hardware, go here:

Hey, how about a render farm running AOS 5 on this puppy

I don`t understnd how ANYONE could fall for Bills babble in 2007. OS5 or the fitting hardware is as real as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Of course you can buy anything and sell it on under the name you like but that does not make it anything Amigalike at all plus I don`t think A Inc. can even handles that, they failed at less before many times.....
