Two more weeks!
« on: June 14, 2008, 05:06:54 PM »
And morphOS 2.0 should be out. Its time to undust those efikas...

What are the chances of MorphOS team actually sticking to sticking to the "2nd quarter 2008" date?

Given that it's the only ETA the developers have ever announced, I'm fairly optimistic.

Looking forward to this one :-)

This would be good news since it appears that running OS4 on anything is not going to be happening for along time if ever.

I would be happy with MorphOS on an Efika to fulfill my Amiga needs. I could run anything else on WinUAE.

It seems that AROS & MorphOS are all thats left for the future
around here.

Great news!  I have my Efika ready and waiting.  The only problem is that I'll be back on my oil rig in Brazil in a week, so I'm willing to give the team an extra 3 weeks to release it.  :-D

looking at the package I want board+casing, how would one get ideal cd/dvdrom experience, on this since it isn't high speed 2.0?
I'm interested in the efika mostly out of boredom (you know 2 more weeks 4 ever!!) but MOS 2.0 would be a nice way to preoccupy myself this summer.

@ Andeda

You haven't heard of MorphOS after all these years? It's a next-generation Amiga-style operating system. It's more mature than AROS, the current 1.4.5 release has better stability and 68K compatability than OS4 (in my opinion), and hardware to run it is actually available.

Should be a no-brainer purchase.

Your reality differs very much from others, I think there might be medicine to cure you.

And I thought the Red/Blue trolling days were over.  :roll:
