Hyperion is still here and will be releasing a netbook that runs OS4 any day now. No word yet on whether that netbook includes drivers but none have been explicitly promised, so there.

nice to know OS4 will run any day now on the netbook, so when its found it doesnt everyone else will know youre to blame for giving wrong information

Ok, so my question is as follows...

I have a sam460 lite system bought from amigakit. I guess that means I don't get the drivers free.
 However the card I got with the machine is the 4650. Before I pay for driver support I would like to know if this card will be supported to the final version and if I will get 3d support for it without having to shell out even more money for os4.2?


you only need to buy this 'new' driver if you want to use a 5xxx or 6xxx card, or 7xxx in the future. you get the same feature for those newer cards as you do for your 4650.

3d support either way will only come with os4.2

no point buying it if you ask me

+1.

Translation to overlay explanations by OS4-Team: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fox_and_the_Grapes


no point 'for him' not in general

you will have to point out where this so called os4 team have said overlay wouldn't be nice to have, hans is only one person and has priorities and overlay is way down on that list
