MorphOS supports AmigaOS 3.1's API + PowerUP and WarpOS ... AmigaOS 4.0(beta) supports AmigaOS 4.0's API (big difference)


What is the difference ?

MorphOS and OS4 has the same "goal in mind" replace and improve the AmigaOS using PPC processor.

The main diff is the "way" the OS is done. Also, MorphOS is "older" than OS4, and could have been "selected" to be the AmigaOS 4 some years ago. But Amiga inc choosed Hyperion instead.

MorphOS is: available, fast, stable, under heavy dev
OS4 is not available, and I can't really say anything else because last time I use it was 5 mouths aga (and it was slow/unstable).
