Amiganoid 2011: MorphOS Team also sponsor + news

[gerograph]

MorphOS Team will be an additional sponsor for Amiganoid Event on 17th of September 2011 in Essen/Germany. This is the good news, the bad news is, there probably won't be an AmigaOne X1000 on display. Photos will be uploaded from time to time during the show. So, check out www.geobiz.de/amiganoid.html on a regular basis on that day, in order to keep uptodate ! Way better would be, to just join us, though.

However, here are the highlights:
- AROS running on ARM based Hardware
- AEROS: AROS distro using Linuxdrivers
- Emula: Emulation launcher for AROS
- AMC: Media Center application for AROS, AmigaOS (tm) and MorphOS
- IcAros: native AROS distribution
- AmigaOS 4.1 update 3 (e.g. on A1200)
- MorphOS (e.g. on PowerMac)
- iBatch live photo upload
- AROS USB Drive for only 3,50€
- AMC discount voucher worth 9,50€

@Allanon
Thanx !

@pampers
if the event would have been one week later, we would have had an X1000 (Grammer ?).

@all
Besides Videocam, bring your photocamera as well. I will upload your photos right on the show !

right, here are the news:

All of us had a lot of fun, was very nice to talk to all the people. I myself found out, that -if you want to have an Amiganoid Notebook - MorphOS will be the way to go. From my impression it seems they are working hard in order to support all hardware incl. Powermanagement on those Notebooks. Great.

Seems, as far as I can judge, AROS is a sort of "comeback" OS for former A500/A1200 users. good fun !

Well, it was not confirmed on Amiganoid, that next MorphOS release will be 3.0 (at least not to me). However on AW.net it was: http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=34264&forum=28
