This is a different poll, but I'm not allowed to change my vote with the new options added. (In case you didn't notice, the new options are not Amiga OS)

See post 128.

Ok, two votes have been recounted, consequently the poll is now also anonymous.

Anybody else? Send me a PM...

Let's add MorphOS 1.4.5 to the list of options eh? ;)


I'm afraid there's no room. A poll has a maximum of 10 options and they are all used up.

Remember, a sock in the hand is worth two in the wash.

Even after he stopped posting... it still took me years to beat his post score!


Likewise. And he's still right there in the top few :)

Bit confused here... :confused:

That macs only got the same 800Mhz speed as the one I'm using now and if this one's too slow and not any good for running MorphOS, how is that one going to help ? :confused:

(or are you one trying to sell it... :lol: )


Your existing one is not too slow to run MorphOS, it is just not supported by MorphOS due to missing drivers for the graphics hardware (and perhaps other bits). Speed wise, an 800MHz G4 ought to run MorphOS extremely well. The 800MHz G4 in my A1 runs OS4.1 very nicely and that's on rather less well designed hardware than the G4 Mac. MHz for MHz I'd expect the G4 Mac to outperform the A1 and since MorphOS is, I believe, heavily optimised for G4 (liberal use of altivec) with a supported Mac, you should have no trouble.

Three votes have been recast from M68K AmigaOS versions to MorphOS. Anybody else want to change their mind?

Interesting,
Outside 3.1 and 3.9, the most used OS' are PPC based (AOS4.1 and MOS).

With all the posts suggesting a shift to X86, you might expect more AROS users to vote for their OS.


I don't think the votes can easily be looked at in those terms. You have to bear in mind that each "camp" tend to have their own forums and may even not post here at all. What you see here is approximately representative of those amiga.org users that could be bothered to cast their vote, nothing more.

Done.

Yes.  You could guess which one I want my vote changed to, but I'll forget about my sarcasm for the moment and just ask you to change it to MorphOS.

I need you to confirm what your original vote was for before I can change it.

I'd prefer it if people just requested this by PM as I'm not exactly trawling this thread.

In that case I want all 33 of my votes for 3.9 to be changed to AROS ;)
