Why does windoesnot suck?

windoesnot pro sp1
C:\windows
contains: 7,198 files, 369 folders
Size: (972,913,055 bytes)

WTF??? Is this some kind of joke??? This is before application programs, games or personal files. Are drivers in there too? Probably not.

I REFUSE to believe it is necessary to have that much code to turn on your computer, have a GUI, operate a mouse, ser/par port and kb. The either net card is just a port like the ser port is, does it really need that much code to work? I just don't get what's going on in there!!!!!

It's madness, madness I tell you!!!


AOS4.0 is gonna rock, even though it'll be bulky due to being done with RISC code.

Call me biased, but AOS just works the way I expect things to, that's all, we're in sync with each other.


AmigaOne! The best OS no one ever heard of!!!!

So I guess that A500, 600, 1000, 2000, CDTV, CD32, are pure garbage then? Thanks for posting here.

AROS:  well I am working on the project now, so I am hardly an objective observer.. but my thoughts are as follows;


Okay, I have some questions that aren't clear, and I have been to the website already.

1) Will I be able to boot into 1.3.3, and 2.x with AROS? I know it's a 3.x thing.

2) Does it support OCS and/or ECS and/or AGA graphics?

3) Can I play all of my games? Will it support catweasel, so I could boot off of stubborn copy protected games?

4) It will boot directly into AROS off the HD, no need for windos, and the filesystem on the HD will be FFS? (Except it will need the drivers, obviously.)

5) Will AMOS Pro work on it?  :-)  :-D  Must...have...


AmigaOne! The road less traveled.

Hi Hammer,

I wonder what genius ever came up with this, and I couldn't imagine how a computer wouldn't work with out it. Okay, I'm sure it does something important, but how ever did the Amiga cope without it? :-D

C:\WINDOWS\system32>dir dv*.dat
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is D82D-6E41

 Directory of C:\WINDOWS\system32

               2 File(s)             48 bytes
               0 Dir(s)     838,479,872 bytes free

Two cleverly named essential xp files, 24 bytes in length each, which have longer filename lengths!!!!

AmigaOne! Please, please, please, please don't have a filname in AOS4.0 even goofier than this!
