Bollocks. At least OS4 was shown to people.

OS5 is total vapor, it's some daydream of some guys who have absolutely no clue of OS design or development.

My guess is they're trying to pull some more VC money with this phantom OS.

Not really. OS4 was done *ENTIRELY* by a respectable, 3rd party. A, Inc. had *NOTHING* to do with it.


I guess you weren't around when the Tomas and Hans-Jorg talked about having to take *OTHER* jobs, 'cos AI didn't pay them for the work they were doing.

Fleecy and I are working on OS5 in house. Yes, it will run on A1200 with 030 card. If everything goes well, Amigans should have a nice Christmas present to look forward to this year.  :-P

Well, that's me obviously. It's quite old picture, though. :-)

Wow, I need to get shopping. I didn't know Christmas was only 2 more weeks away!  :lol:

Oh BTW, my two 040 cards and one 030 card have died and I dont' expect the last 030 card to last till Xmas. So by the time you get done it won't matter much to me any way "Fleecy" :-)

I don't think it's going to have ANYTHING to do with WorkBench. And the people behind Amiga now a days don't seem to have anything to do with the community.

Nice Avatar jorkany, I LOVE that show!

No, because there isn't any. Focus on OS4/MOS/AROS/OS3.x for the time being.

HAHAHAAH! Now that was hilarious.

I was thinking along the same lines, but I was thinking,

"I have something related to OS5..... IT'S CRAP! :)"
