I'ts feels faster and more powerful that MorphOS PowerUP

 This is good to hear!
 Have you perform any OS4 Vs MOS benchmarks to see if you get more FPS from games like shogo or Heretic2? Less frame-skipping while playing movies with Amp and Frogger?

The screenshot which A4000_Mad posted is beautiful, but noone noticed that only 400KB of free chip-ram is left? This is practically unusable! I always assumed that the functionality of FBlit was intergrated into the OS4. I guess not... :-/

AGA screenmodes are generated by the custom chips, which only have access to Chip RAM.

 I'm sure you have heard of FBlit before, haven't you? Classic OS users benefits from its function for more than a decade. A supposly much more advance OS like OS4 should have this feature intergraded.

 Expectable.. WHDLoad doesn't work under OS4. There are no work-arounds, afaik.
