Boy you are a one note horn. 20+ plus posts of sheer vitriol about the AOne. What's the matter you A**hole? Let me guess, you couldn't find www.Pegasos.org.  The only thing you have done is fire on Amiga inc. Are you sure you don't work for MS?


Calm down, respect other peoples opinions. No im not a MOS Supporter, but he does have some good points.

strobe you dont get it...Amiga I have found isnt about wether or not something excists, how long it will take to excist, if its any good or not, if it's hardware sucks, if its general policy stinks, or wether or not you even like the end result of it.

Amiga is about one thing... the 'NAME" Amiga...it isnt about.

Quality
Stability
Applications
Product Support
Service
Logic
Wisdom

or anything else even slightly related to it... Amiga zealots even the ones zealot for the OS have gone into 'Name' lovers these days...Thats why I'm getting Pegasos/MOS .


Well for me, thats a part of it, cause i havnt used an Amiga in 4-5 years. I dont have my A1200 anymore.

But the biggest thing that has me buying Amiga before MorphOS is the DE. I see where Amgia Inc are going with this, as anyone could with half a brain. Not that im saying you dont.

Im waiting for a Universal OS. Thatis, an OS that will run on any hardware with very little effort from the developers. IF AmigaOS can make it to OS5, we wi'll have this.

Ill be waiting a long time, but the possibilies are endless. I think Amiga Inc can do this. They have the vission beyond OS4, they have made it well known, and thats why i want AmigaOS.

last word from Ben Hermans was that the 68k emulator was being integrated, and that this would take a few weeks. Without this integrated, they can't run OS4 on PPC hardware


What your saying then is that OS4 is entirely 68K then?... if it where 'all'  68K (workbench and all) then you might as well run Amithlon because the big E world is what the entire OS would be then...
I had thought OS4 like MorphOS was going to be a native PPC OS (useing this native EXEC kernel in AOS's case) and that a 68K emulation layer of sorts was going to be implimented to allow old apps to run.

If i had known that they NEEDED this 68K Layer to even boot the OS i'd of thought less of it from the beginning even.
But thats pretty pathetic if it is true.
I agree though... whats FUD about AOS4...
It dosent excist yet and A1 dosent run it...so I dont think there is anything we can really say about it except that it's going to have some catching up to do if it takes them a whole year more to get it on PPC and shipped to the users.


You constantly comparing OS4 to MorphOS. In terms of development, the MorphOS team have had a lot longer than the AmigaOS team. Hyperion have dont a great job, in many places re-writing the kernel and other parts of the system because of all the ASM in places.

These guys deserve only credit.

Why cant you all stop your constant whining, and stop trying to think you've all got a better system than the others. One is AmigaOS, the other is an AmigaOS clone. Bets are, they'll both run like AmigaOS too.
