Is THIS AmigaOS 5

[amigadave]

That is the press release to announce the pending announcement at CES, which will be an announcement that A.inc will soon be announcing their partnership with several major players in the content creation field as well as partnerships with one or two manufacturers (that they conveniently can't divulge yet) of the new Amiga desktop and laptop computers.

Just the usual story from A.Inc and the same story they have been trying to sell for years.

Nothing (new) to see here, move along.  :cry:

"The point for AmigaOS buffs is that AmigaAnywhere 2 effectively starts up a virtual machine, boots AmigaOS and runs the code on top of that. And that makes it perfectly possible for Amiga lovers to fire it up and run the familiar Amiga GUI instead of the game. Why they'd want to is anyone's guess, and Amiga wasn't demo'ing the OS working in this mode. Can AmigaOS catch up with the user experience and the functionality of modern operating systems? Some might argue that it shouldn't try, that it should instead revel in its simplicity and very small storage requirement."

"If AmigaAnywhere 2 is using AmigaOS 5, it's presumably free of any further fall-out from the ongoing legal battle over the ownership of AmigaOS 4 and its predecessors."

What a F*#king disappointment!

Who here (besides me) thinks that A.Inc only wants AOS4.0 so they can kill it because they don't want it confusing the general public and device manufacturers, who they only want to concentrate on AA2.  Maybe I am wrong.
