MorphOS-featurelist.
« on: December 11, 2002, 05:44:19 PM »
Genesi has released a full (at least current) feature list of MorphOS which you can read here.

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

Are you so lost for words that you couldnt supply
a preamble with the link?

A link and a pair of smileys is a bit poor fare :-)
Hate figure. :lol:

@DaveP

Granted, it wasn't the best example of "how to submit a news story" but a lot of the times, people don't bother to read our instructions and simply presume that if they send us a link, we'll bother to sort it all out and write something.

By all reports, the news submission should have been deleted with the obligatory "bad puppy" note.

-- Kronos - Bad Puppy...  
-- DaveP - don't be pedantic.  

Sometimes the forest can be beautiful if you'll stop bitching about all the damned trees. :-)

@Wayne

Wuff wuff  :-P

But really what more could I have written ? Copying the
original post didn't seem o.k. for me.

...ahh the irony!

What you are looking at on the MOS side is a PDF of a document written on a Mac.

Oh but it is put into neat little categories!!!!

Considering we all had to wait until after the release
of MOS1 before getting ANY useful information
let alone info more detailed than the OS4 spec list
perhaps you will do Hyperion the same courtesy?
Hate figure. :lol:

Hello Dave,
 ... Ahh irony.  You have to love it.  Trust me I will extend all the courtesy due to Hyperion.  All I'm saying is I like what I saw and I can't wait till we get the same type of feature list from Amiga Inc/ Hyperion.

I'd rather we had more screenshots than a neater featurelist. But what I want most of all is a message from Ben saying: "Yesterday we booted up AOS4 on the AmigaOne, and Heretic 2 ran at a steady 50 fps in 1600x1280". I guess I might have to wait a while longer before that happens, though...

Anyway, I see they are bundling Turboprint with MOS. I must say that strikes me as a very good idea. Hey, Hyperion, why not go one better and *incorporate* it into AmigaOS? I'm less crazy about the way they seem to use MUI for everything, though. Not that it matters, since I'm not getting MOS anyway...;-)

Amiga Inc have had an OS4 feature list on their website for many months now.
