whoa, Tigger is on a rampage.
well, I'll just add/reemphasise (sp) these points:
1. Pegasos2 is cheaper and more highly specced than AmigaOne hardware, and is currently available
2. MorphOS and AmigaOS4 software bases are nearly identical, but with some very noteworthy exceptions such as (but not limited to) early versions of Blender, Pixel32, and soon KHTML!.. thats a good bit of software I reckon.
3. MorphOS is reputedly more compatible with older amigaos3.x software.
I have an AmigaOneXE. I wanted to go with the official direction, and I dont regret it at all. This is my first "kickass Amiga". It's the A4000 I could never afford back in 1994 and I absolutely love it.
OS4 feels very complete. The only thing I miss is AmigaInput support. Software wise, I'd love a more modern browser. The hardware has flaws here and there.. they're well known.. but they dont affect my daily usage in the slightest, which others have mentioned here.
My opinion, the MorphOS platform has the edge atm.
But I enjoy OS4 nonetheless.
I know theres been a lot of political squabbling in the past, and a lot of important people in the scene may never get over it. I wont hold that against anyone. But I wish we could kiss and make up, and get OS4 going on hardware such as the Pegasos2. I know, liscenes blah blah blah. But someone somehow needs to make it happen.
In my opinion, the day of the Amiga branded computer is over. For me, anything that runs AmigaOS natively will be an "Amiga". I say "Amiga" because what defines "Amiga" is different for everyone, and I dont like to force my defination on others.
