Well, since they're doing it in their spare time, it shouldn't have too much of an impact.


You do understand that *everything* is being developed in *everyone's* spare time, don't you?
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

I was under the impression that the Friedens are getting paid for their work on OS4


Then I think you may have been greatly overestimating the accumulated sales of OS4, Gorky 17, Shogo, SiN, Quake2 etc during the last decade... ;)

"I am afraid that the Frieden's are spending too much time working on  
Timberwolf, instead of working on drivers for the SAM460ex, or X1000.  
I am sure that Timberwolf is important to them


Of course, there is a €6.000+ bounty ear-marked for them personally to cash in, for some relatively easy work (in the approach they have chosen).

but many people are saying that Timberwolf is  
unusable on any SAM systems and it may never be usable on a SAM.
"


Firefox *is bloated*, there is a considerable and very much noticeable speed difference between Firefox and Chrome even on my core i7 (not saying it's unusable on a modern PC, far from it, just that there is a noticeable difference), and Sam is *very* weak HW, especially the 440 that even lacks a L2 cache...

I dont want to start any flames, but Id be curious to see how AROS Odysee scores in that test. Id hazzard a guess it'd be somewhere between MOS version and OS4 OWB-MUI?


I don't know whether some stuff aren't ported/supported on AROS, but at least Odyssey on AROS is of version 1.16, which should mean WebKit r103170 (December 2011)...

Looks like rouge needs another hobby. Anything less than praise sung from the roof tops will causes this man to blow his gasket.


Yeah... :rolleyes:
