Have have to disagree ..... (oh what suprise :-P )

According to the little public info we got from Hyperion in
the last times, they are just about to run an OS3.9 on top
of Petunia/ExecSG. Even if it would be rock-stable, releasing
such a version would just be suicide, and a fesival for the
competition as it would be just on par with MOS0.1 .....
(which had a static 68k-emu instead of the JIT, but still)

Something like this is good to show the state of affairs, but a
release version has to come with atleast the core-parts in PPC,
working WOS-emu, intrgrated P96, and some extras.

Remember they are expecting people to pay for it  ;-)

Yes the emulator is finished when OS3.9 runs on it, but do
you really believe all those other components will just
recompile out of th box ? And just work with other parts
still 68k ?

How do you test Intuition-PPC (for example) without the rest of
the system ? There are very few modules/libs that could run on
Exec(SG) and nothing else.

Hmm they didn't have a system working good enough to
show it last week, but still you think the final
is gonna be
"out any day now " ?

Doesn't sound very realistic .....

And rest assured one can bring any system down if he just
wants to, and that what happened in not to few cases with
MOS on public shows, and that will happen to OS4, once it
can be touched by "mortals".

I also wouldn't give to much value about what any Hyperion-guy
has to say after all the completly off-mark predictions on
the release-schedule they made in the last 15 months.

Also noticed that I haven't made any comment on when I think
it will be released, just on your "out any day now" which
sounds like 4 weeks max and I don't see that happening.

See you in May.
