Wow thanks to the webmaster for those mpg's on OS4, it is also the first time I've seen OS 4 in action.

It will be a long time, probably, before an OS 4 show is in Tennessee, but maybe someday :-)

I cannot wait till the complete systems are on sale!
Or rather I should say, I can wait, now, because it so soon...you could tell when I couldn't wait cause I was cranky and had a tendency to shout.

This community always amazes me...still strong after so many years, and now two hardware/os platforms are just about ready for launch!

Looking like a great 2003/2004 for Amigadom.

You know what, I'm even going to do an AmigaGuide format of our books, not for sale...will give them away, but just as a nod to the community.

peace,

@RedWarrior,

Well you'll have to wait just a few more months, but when OS4 comes out, that is the difference.
or if you have a peg II, MorphOS 1.4

I think you have hit on many points about what made the Amiga experience unique in the past, but the process of rebuilding the Amiga platform must come in stages.

The PPC choice does ensure that the Amiga market is in a unique position.  Not sure why you called it an 'old mac processor' since Amiga's never
were sold with a processor that hadn't also been used first in a Mac (the 68k line), unless you count the quikpak 060's, Mac's never used an 060.

But as for custom chips, well, Amiga simply doesn't have the resources to build a custom chip thats going to outdo the latest from ATI or nVidia, but
when you use MorphOS...and as you can see from the Video, OS4....you know you are using an Amiga, and one of the fastest Amiga's ever sold.
