OS 3.1 rules :-)
It only lacks the Reaction GUI and OS 3.5 icons: i really dislike softwares that make use of these, forgetting about OS 3.1.


Hmm..OS 3.9 has large hard drive support, TCP stack, email, web browser, Action, updated multiview, updated dataypes, 24 bit printer support,  cd file system and atapi support, built in dock, new icon information with drag an drop icon update, animated scrolling of icons within windows, correct aspect ratio of window's horizontal scroll bar. Probably a fair few other things that aren't visible on the surface.

You could do most of this stuff with 3rd party utilities, but its nice to have it all there for you when you boot.

Having said that I I use a 4 color 3.1 workbench and 3.1 ROM, flies.  Eye candy no longer matters to me.

If you're using a 3.0 ROM with 3.1 I think its its worth getting the 3.1 ROM, seems more stable and screen re-draws seem faster.

It is not the first time you have neglected us and probably won't be the last, but your polls that do not include us have little meaning, since they leave out such a large percentage of the remaining Amiga community.

Also, it is very annoying that you repeat this pattern over and over again, just because of your personal preferences, which IIRC are for Classic Amiga computers only, yet you always seem to remember AmigaOS4.x, which is no more related to the old Classic Amiga hardware than MorphOS2.x is.  In fact, MorphOS has been around for longer than AmigaOS4.x and had a free version for Classic Amiga computers with Phase5 PowerUp boards many years ago (10 I believe is the correct number).

If you are going to create this endless progression of polls here at Amiga.org, please try to make an attempt to include ALL of the members here, or think about moving such exclusive polls to Amigan.net instead.


The poll says AmigaOS..

You mean like an OS that runs Amiga programs and games?


No I mean AmigaOS.

Of course you don't!  That would be beyond your ability to reason and see the benefits of keeping what is left of the Amiga community together, instead of continuing to preach division and conflict (and jealousy).

How very sad for you!


Oh Lordy!
