so what advantages does 4.1 classic have over 3.x? I think i remember before that someone said 4.0 classic made the system slower? Not sure.

This is something new and different (like AROS and MorphOS) made by different people (some Linux Game Porting people) than those who once wrote Amiga OS, and they rebranded Amiga OS to "Classic", and their own OS to "AmigaOS". And that's it! Had you slapped on the "AmigaOS" sticker on MorphOS (*THANK GOD THEY DIDN'T*) you would also have gotten something new and different, but you would have experienced far, far better Amiga compatibility (and better performance, and better features as well). They are using the brand to cover up the product underneath it. I have always been surprised that there actually exists people who buys that, but I guess some people really likes to blindly follow a trade mark instead of actually reading up on all alternatives about what you will really get (what's under the hood, so to say) and make a rational decision based on that info. But who knows, they should be a happy bunch now, because it seems like these people will have a lot of new, interesting Amiga branded products to choose from, including tablets! And even an upcoming, new Amiga from Commodore! :-O

This comment is nothing more than a comparison between the red and blue camps. You are obviously blue ;)

I think you should watch Dan Woods "why i use amiga in 2011". Great video. In my opinion he perfectly sums up the differences between the different camps. Red camp trying to remain as faithful to the original os as possible whereas the blue camp try to modernize things a bit. All i can say is each to their own.

Please don't talk in fruit-isms explaining to the little people what life is all about. I understand the big picture, and don't need any 'fruit-in-sense' to explain what you mean. Just stick to the facts, please. ;)


Actually i think he was talking to me so try and not take it too personally ;)

Hi,

@takemehomegrandma,

Just went to the Apple boards where one young fellow was talking about updating his G4 up to the 7448 processor, and even the Apple fanboys where telling him that he would be better off buying one of the newer computers and get away from the PPC processors, one of them even said (PPC is old ancient and dead, why in the hello would you want to waste all that money on a 2.0ghz ppc processor, just buy one of the newer computers with an Intel).
It just goes to show that even the Apple fanboys are getting smarter.

A link would be nice :)
