showing Amiga One and Amiga OS 4 beta (68k)


A *bit* misleading title. People believes it is AmigaOS4 compiled to 68k and working under emulation over ExecSG PPC, on AmigaOne.

Reality: Hyperion has this very same thing but working on a  PPC accelerated A4000. This is quite
good news (still needs work though). AmigaOne version still long way off (-months-).

Reality2: This "AmigaOS4 beta (68k)" at Webb.it is the same old demo from Show/party held last year
in Scandinavia. It's OS39 demoing some 68k compiled OS4 libraries and programs.

The point is that there is very little concern in
pursuing clarity from who, it seems to me, is
over-excited about Amiga "official" path.

Better to concentrate on what has been achieved
so far than to anticipate things that, actually have
not happened (yet). Hyperion is learning the lesson
(respect to those who rectify).

Overhypers should think more what they write.
PLEASE.

same modules but certainly not the same development status

Ow. My mistake. Didn't check my facts.
@Bodie.
I only was summarizing what others have said,
I try to apply common sense to verify their
level of truth. (It is hard!) My intention is not to be
confused by either side, and provide clarification
so flame wars can't even start. An honest
(somwhat frustrating) attempt to bring harmony
over here.
