The AmigaOS 4.1 review on OSNews.com ( http://www.osnews.com/story/21826/sam440ep_AmigaOS_4_1 ) sums it up nicely...

"However, said fun and coolness comes at a massive price, and this time, I'm not talking about the price of the soft and hardware. Despite the lipstick the developers put on the system (in the form of transparency and other fanciness) it's still very clear that the AmigaOS is a relic, a thing from the past. The application portfolio is outdated, lacking, and incapable, there's no protected memory, and many configuration panels are overwhelmingly difficult to understand and use."

Written by someone who couldn't work out what "snapshot" in the menu was for.  And he looked for a built in file manager, when anyone who's ever used an Amiga would have DOpus installed.


Which was exactly his point... :)
