Why is Morphos considered by many as the 'new Amiga OS' ?

[Everblue]

Why is Morphos seen by many as a very valid Amiga alternative? Ironically Morphos is in the exact opposite situation of OS4 - You can buy OS4, but no hardware for it to run on, and you can buy an Efika, but there is no Morphos version out (yet) for it.

So what do you guys think - is Morphos a real alternative to the 'next-gen Amiga OS' or its just a marketing ploy to keep Amiga users interested in Genesi stuff?


 :-D

Just wondering... is software released for OS4 usually ported to MorphOS and vice versa?

I understand that Amiga 680x0 stuff runs on both systems via JITS emulation.

Thanks guys!

"It's not an 'alternative' to AmigaOS, it's 'another' AmigaOS"

That makes the Pegasos and Efika "Amiga hardware"


 :-D

So will MorphOS be free for Efika?

Thought so - so let's stop calling MorphOS 'free', shall we  :-D
