I wish too, os4 will be a bootable option in my 1200 with bppc. This is one of the few things that keep me as an amigan nowadays.

Actually theres only a handful of them in active use. I wonder if it even covers for the packaging, manual, posting etc.

Does this mean that Hyperion can sell OS4 to classic users without AI ?  I thought Hyperion and AI had issues?   Well, that'll be a cool thing to classic users.

Originally Hyperion was going to release OS4 for the classic PPC systems, *before* the A1. So it's a pretty safe bet that the classic release was worked out years ago - before the classic version was axed for the A1.

That's all very nice, but what about us faithful Amigans
that DON'T have a PPC card ?
They cannot be bought anymore since no one is making them anymore  :-? (not mentioning doubtful sales on eBay etc).

I have an Amiga 4000 in an Elbox tower and would love to get
a PPC based accelerator to replace my Apollo 060 card, but alas, miracles don't happen...

Why not port OS4 to 040 and 060 to. But I would love to be able to run OS4 on my PPC card. It is one of the reasons I have not sold that card yet.

i posted a similar (reply)question on amigaworld,
and the reply was that yes i can run OS4 with my BPPC,
but as i have a mediator + cards the driver`s will only run in emulation.

Well, Elbox claim that they'll start selling SharkPPC G3/G4 accelerators for people with Mediator busboards. However, for that price you could probably buy the new Amiga that A Inc. and ACK announced at the start of the week.
