LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY!

Not to dis on MorphOS, after all I am a VERY happy user, but it is not fully binary compatible. A lot of PPC games still do not run or run proper. OctaMED Sound Studio still does not load without locking the machine up, etc. etc. There is still a lot of work that needs done in that department.

Though there are still a lot of classic apps that do run perfectly or near perfect, not to mention the fact that the apps written for MorphOS are very nice!

I just wanted to point this out for those looking to buy MorphOS and expect everything to work.
 And yes, I know some apps make direct calls to chips which are not in the hardware MorphOS runs on, but even still, some of those apps load up fine on OS4, so with this in mind, I'm sure that the MorphOS team could eventually get them working on MorphOS as well.
Earth has a lot of things other folks might want... like the whole planet. And maybe these folks would like a few changes made, like more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and room for their way of life. - William S. Burroughs
