I've got be honest here the Natami or the MiniMig AGA are the only possible future for me "upgrading" my Amigas. I've given up on the X1000 and Sams etc... don't really do it for me.

I simply want to be able to run all my old Amiga software like PageStream, ImageFX etc.. a wee bit faster (not into games much) and be able to buy and use new HDs/DVD drives and the like without having to pay 500 quid on ebay for an accelerator board.

Having looked at AROS, MorphOS, Broadway, OS4.1 and such I can now say they are not for me. Strange as it may seem to some I really don't want to run an Amiga that looks and feels like a PC or Mac or even use the type of software that they use.



And running AROS on your MiniMig or Natami is totally out of the question? :confused:

Sorry to burst your bubble boys.... well i'm not really :) but AmigaOS4.1 is a continuation of the development of all the previous WORKBENCH/AmigaOS derivatives including AmigaOS/Workbench 3.1


Ahhh, gentlemen! We have a techie troll in our midst!

So tell me mr Fairdinkem, if that is your real name, how exactly is AOS4 a confirmation of 3.1, where AROS and MoS are not?*

which AROS clearly is a rip off of. So bearing this in mind yes AROS was around before AmigaOS4 but it wasn't before 3.1 and all subsequent advances to which AmigaOS4 and 4.1 is as mentioned a derivative of.


not sure I even parse this paragraph...


*I'll give you a quick clue; Hypeion have gone on record to say that very little of the AmigaOS 3.1 source code was used in AOS4 and that parts of AROS were used in AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9...
