I have given up on the future!

Get over it and move to AROS or MorphOS.

Well the 'future' of the Amiga as far as I can tell is AROS

Maybe I am naive, but I'm still waiting for the MorphOS Team's "Proclamation for the Future". That obviously means "Post PPC".

I'm hoping it will be going in the ARM direction...

I can't see anything else being sustainable and obviously even AROS is always going to be a hobby OS.

MorphOS is, as opposed to AROS (and OS4 for that matter), actually truly usable. For real!

They are *Eon's* apart! (heh )

I'm sorry, I really like the AROS effort and all, and I think *it can* have a future, but it's *Nothing* like MorphOS!

I don't understand this! Cloanto are fucking heroes! They have done so much for Amiga, and still do!

Anyone opposes that are plain morons, really...

[takemehomegrandma]

A future doesnt necessarily suggest the quality of an OS itself (theyre not nearly as far apart as MOS people like to suggest though).

??

The simple fact that AROS runs on so much hardware (including stuff you can walk into a shop today and buy) is a huge plus.

You mean "hosted"?

PPC is more or less a dead end as far as a desktop platform goes

Did you hear me oppose that?

No!

I agree!

and ARM is even behind PPC in terms of raw grunt.

No, no, no... Serious players (like nVidia) is using ARM to take on x86 in power computing, with Microsoft support!

Browse through the thread. And please don't miss the link to the Youtube file where: Microsoft shows off ARM processors running Windows !

ARM is the new x86!
