Not being a big fan of OS4, MorphOS or AROS as they're not really proper Amiga operating systems as they don't run on "REAL" Amigas (ie: in 68K and not PPC or whatever)...

I don't get why folk actually go on about them so much on an Amiga forum, at the end of the day none of them (unless AROS finally release a proper 68K version) are really going to be of any use to the majority of the last remaining Amiga users and their real hardware, often wonder why anyone actually bothers with continuing to develop them when they really haven't much to do with real Amiga hardware... :)

AROS and OS 4 do run on REAL Amigas.


I've got OS4.0 and it requires a PPC board to run, that why I mentioned PPC in the post, how many folk using a desktop A1200 actually own a PPC board... :)

The point I was trying to make is (and I'm not putting all the work that folk have put into these OS's down) for you average Amiga user with say a desktop A500/600 or 1200 is just what use are these systems to them when they can't run them on a bog standard or 030/040/060 Amiga... :)

When people have a negative opinion or fact regarding Hyperion or OS4, it's refered to as FUD. FUD stands for Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt.


Cheers for that Jorkany... :)

Could never figure that one out, thought it was some kind of swear words but I could never get anything to match up with the letter "U"... :)
