after reading this review i think:

pro:

boot is faster than his x86 computer
he finally can play with Space Quest 5, play mp3, surf in internet and burning some CD

con:

no Xena and dual core support
it's very expensive and so it's not for all amiga users, but only for super mega enthusiasts

PS: this doc was made on AmigaONE X1000, well nearly, right click menu dont seem to work so wasn't able to spell check it until I got on my PC, plus adding photo seem to fail on uploading them, but I could of uploaded them to Photobucket if I wanted and linked to them that way but decide to just add the Photos on my PC, I’m sure once Timberwolf gets its final release I hope I can fully create documents like this.


A footnote like that is pretty telling. It kind of half works. But it costs at least twice.
Anyway, I don't doubt one can have fun with such a toy - enjoy.

Everything with TimberWolf isn't working yet so no wonder he wasn't successfull. The solution is to use either MUIOWB or OWB. I don't know why he didn't try that.

Mainly because it dose'nt seem to work in them browers, I dont know if their are some setting I have change but on MUIOWB it just stops on Google loading screen.

Plus this was originally only going to be a very quick review / post to basicly test out google doc, but got carried away. :)

Glad you enjoyed it.
Any way back to my system.

I haven't tried what you did so I wouldn't know, however every site that I've tried has worked either with the default settings or by changing the spoofing setting (I usually choose Safari).

Doesn't matter though, good review I just thought that someone would read that like "so it doesn't work in AOS 4" and I was correct. It isn't clear if it's just an issue with the early Firefox port because of some functions not working yet or if it just isn't possible at all on the Amiga NG.
