Technically, the last Amigas died with Commodore. Really. I am mentioning this because of the ten year anniversary. Eyetechs A1 is not an Amiga in any other way than the brand stickers (which it lacks), and Hyperion's OS4 is a new OS with (hopefully) some grade of Amiga compatibility, and some Amiga brand sticker tagged on to it. It will probably be a nice OS however, hopefully at least as nice as MorphOS.


I'm surprised you think so , after all we are talking technically. the OS4 is based on the original code of the OS we all love so much, yes the hard-ware is much more generic (bummer) but hey if the Peg2 was endorsed and ran OS4 it'd be amiga enough for me... however I am not really that interested (although much more than in say BeOs even) in an OS that is just a compatible imitation (although quiet nice!!) of the offical "name tag" ...... but is it just a name tag if it is infact an evolution of the original OS code ??????? :-?

It's worth pointing out that Linux has TCP/IP built into the kernel, too (for performance reasons).


yeah and it's worth pointing out that Linux has it's security issues as a result :lol:  not to mention that the information it sends over a network on a terminal setup.....

Look I'm not gunna say the AmigaOne hardware has custom chips but I am not gunna say that "if an OS changes owners it's no-longer thae same OS" or "if it is overhauled :lol: " or if "the hardware is out sourced"

I wish that our Amiga's still had cutting edge CUSTOM chips but thats not realistic..... however OS4 is and thats how (depending on results) I am going to upgrade...

like I said yeah the AmigaOne is more generic but it IS the closest thing to a real Amiga as it is the only one (at this stage fingers crossed) that will run the real AmigaOS!!


-now flame on AmigaOs clone users. :admonish:  [edit]<--sorry I was moody[edit]
