Acill, I basically agree with your points.

I'm not interested in a "new Amiga" anymore;
the "clean" approach of Peg/MorphOS to the
basic AmigaOS concepts is a plus in my book.
I have my old boxes to run AmigaOS.

You definately bring up some good points, but
I disagree with this:

I'm impressed with the quality of the effort I see going in to developing and testing AmigaOS, where MorphOS feels more like the "free-for-all" situation of Linux. In itself, this isn't a bad thing, but despite Linux being my primary desktop OS at home, it's still a far cry from the professionally put together feel of AmigaOS.


OS4 was 'NOT" looking very professional when
I saw it at AmiWest, being slow, not publically
available to demo and also running on 90's era
dated hardware. And I wouldn't call 3.9 very
"professional" considering the hack 'n patch
job it takes to get useable...cool to tinker
with maybe, but not professional in the sense
that XP or OSX is.

BTW I watched the Peg run app after app without
crashing...OS4 could hardly resize windows
and make it out of the shade of it's own ass...
just my perspective...yes it may crash and I'm
not saying it's perfect, but from what I saw,
there was really no comparison. Several fully
operational systems running on G3's/G4's compared
to a half-finished product running on old 604's?

-edit-
The above is my OPINION, and I actually do
believe that OS4 will be a good product 'when
it's done', and if it comes out for the Peg
I'll probably even buy it.
