What kind of compatiblilty does MorphOS provide in regards to AmigaOS?
As far as I know it provides 68k emu. and Warp and Power Up, as well as Native MOS apps.
Can it also provide Native AOS4 app. compatiblity?
Cheers

MorphOS will not run apps that make use of AmigaOS4 features.

If Amiga successfully sue the MorphOS team, MorphOS won't run any Amiga software.

I think we should all just sit tight and see what happens.

O.k. only one comment:

Quote
instead of wanting to commander someone else's market,


It's OUR (the users) market, and NOT AInc, Eyetechs, Hyperion or
bPlan's market !! They all can deliever products to OUR market,
but the don't own us, and we can decide ourself what we buy.

He better made sure that he really has a "waterproof" case or this
will ne the end of AInc.

@zacman
The just passed their 68k-stuff through the 68_2_PPC-assmebler  ;-)
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

Why do you ask me ? Am I his babysitter or what ?

Just send an email to laire@t-online.de or ask on the MorphOS-IRC
and you may find out.

You're one of our resident MOS fans who seems to follow it pretty closely. On top of that you speak German and IIRC you frequent the boards he posts to.
