I will say OS4 does feel more like OS3 as it still uses Workbench, but if that's a major thing for you, you can always replace ambient with Workbench if you wanted, I personally like Ambient now I know my way around it though, Workbench feels bit basic in comparison.


I bought MorphOS about a year ago and loaded it on a Quicksilver G4 to try it.  It seems plenty fast and responsive.   I haven't used it much because it was much less Amiga-like than I expected out of the box.  There seems to be software, themes, palettes, icons, etc for it, but, I haven't had time (Linux is starting to fascinate me!) to sorted thru the mass of it to find a familiar Amiga environment.  Did anyone compile a list of OS3.9 add-ons for folks like me who are easily disoriented by Ambient?

I've never tried OS4.

...I think I'm still looking for that same buzz I had opening up the A500 all those years ago.


I remember that buzz.  I got it when I brought the A500 home, every time I bought a coverdisk, when I upgraded to OS2.1, A570, HDD, etc.  I even caught it when finding some of the other classic platforms that I couldn't afford when they were new.

My employer sent me a new computer, tablet and smartphone - just tools and tracking devices.
