Amount of MorphOS copies sold

[Lando]

I sincerely think that sales of MorphOS licenses will sky rocket when Powerbook support appears in 3.x.  It will be the first time ever that a laptop has been able to run an Amiga *compatible OS natively.

*by Amiga compatible I mean binary compatible, obviously Aros is running on laptops for years

Os4 is not an offshoot of os3. It's a continued work from os3.

It's neither an offshoot nor a continued work.

"Exec SG was completely rewritten from scratch and from the ground up" (Ben Hermans, Hyperion, September 2002)

Now, "completely rewritten from scratch" can only be interpreted one way - that nothing, not a single line of code, remains from OS3.x (as if 68k assembly and BCPL would have been of any use anyway).  There is nothing that makes OS4 any more of a continuation of OS3 than MorphOS or Aros other than the name.
