current state of amiga / amiga os?

[AGSzabo]

ok, what is the current state of amiga hardware and system software? what is the latest news about os 4? do we get it or not?

[AGSzabo]

should i buy an amigaone, or pegasus or wait for something else?

[AGSzabo]

so is there any new amiga hardware under construction?

will there be pegasos compatibility in the near future?

where can i see amiga os 4 screenshoots? where can i read developer class informations i.e. about how to code a gui under amiga os 4?

[AGSzabo]

isn't morphos something built on mui? is there / will there be a firefox / java for morphos? will my 68k binaries run under morphos? if the answers are yes (except for mui which i dislike), i should give it a closer look. thank you.

Out of interest, what's wrong with MUI?

its overload, can do much more than you really need. and to me it still doesnt look nice. i like ReAction as it is.

[AGSzabo]

any chance that amithlon gets resurrected?

[AGSzabo]

im very sad :cry:

you never seen Mui4, i suppose? Changes parsed in runtime and other little jewels ;-)

MorphOS and Mui4 grab

it might be too good for me. well, let me see more, f.e. the configuration window!

[AGSzabo]

no. i believe you. i just would like to see more of it.

[AGSzabo]

where are more mui4 images? i did not find any on the mui website.

the amiga must read informations

isnt the so called "new" amiga hardware outdated? No! Read this: someone is rich if what he has is enough.the new amiga os 4 mainboards are good enough with what they have on them. they do not need so called newer or "better" parts.

$550?  The cheapest board on that page is over $975.

that are complete systems. the boards only is ca 550 (well, one ist 528 and the other 587 ).

[AGSzabo]

aros wont run binary 68k code but amiga os 4 and morphos do. so i left it out. an emulation part in aros though would be welcome to me.

i tried it and it crashed all the time. currently the only superb uae is winuae. annother good variant of uae is http://saimobvq.interfree.it/glUAE/index.html as it extends the OS directly and can run multiple instances from the same codebase.

hello buzz, good to see you here. only thing that prevents me from buying a pegasos is....     well, i want firefox/java and amiga os 4 and i guess that some other board will work with os 4 first. amithlon would be fine also. i guess these are the things that EVERYBODY here wants. btw, xfr works on morphos, that means it is correctly emulated.
