"Except for the fact that we've got the best browser, OS4 has a decent word processor (Cinnamon Writer), and AROS?
Oh yeah, it crashes.
Aros? It hasn't reached revision 1.0 yet."

I am really tempted to response in the same tone but I will not do that...

For some reason I feel slightly nervous after watching that....  :/

But Olaf, you have been, that's why I went there.
As I mentioned, I have an AROS system set up, so its not like I haven't used it (unlike Smerf and others that have posted here with no experience about what they're talking about).

Oh, to close this whole argument, "Is MorphOS ahead of AROS?".

MorphOS current revision 2.7.

Aros? It hasn't reached revision 1.0 yet.

Ahead? Yes, obviously.
Why does this matter?
Who brings up these silly decisive topics?


pfft shows how much you know about AROS.  



See says 1.61 right there.  :P

1.61? So we're no longer dealing with a beta product and all libraries are now complete?

Apparently you didn't get the joke.

because Morphos is 2.7 and AROS isn't even 1.0 correct?   You obviously don't get how foolish that sounded.  If that's the case AmigaOS is at 4.1 so therefore because it's version number is 1.4 higher it must be better correct?

"Aros? It hasn't reached revision 1.0 yet."

Thats a bit of a strange benchmark for a systems usefulness and ability.

Usually a 1.0 designation is given when the system is fully matured, has been bug checked and bug checked again and gain, is stable and more or less a completely working system. If you think that os4 has been through that level of work and streamlining your sadly mistaken.

Just because its called os4.0 dosn't mean its as progressed as a 4.0 revision os would usually be. It was called that simply because of the previous version numbering.

Morphos 2.7 (and the coming 3.0) however, I will say actually DESERVE that version numbering. Os4.0 does not. In its current form, Its more like newamigaos 0.5 alpha. I don't believe os4 deserves the distinction of a 1.0 designation myself, but thats purely my opinion after using it for awhile. I found it buggy and crashy as hell. (so does my friend with a sam board, who by the way thought that expense was a ripoff when he saw what the machine could do, or more importantly what it could not do)

I've heard other people complain about Aros crashing but I've used it for years with very little crashing. (much less than any classic amiga anyway) So long as your using supported hardware, it runs great.

I don't believe aros is far off from what would be considered a 1.0 release by just about any coder or software developer. Go look at windows 3.0 or 3.1. or windows me if you think version #'s are important.

Still waiting on that long list of software that crashes AROS that is so needed in 2012.
This is a very unproductive thread, I would have thought we would have a long list by now. Could it be there's a load of FUD into all this ? Maybe Mazze would like to have a look at some of those software's crashing that you list here ?
AmigaOS or MorphOS on x86 would sell orders of magnitude more than the current, hardware-intensive solutions. And they\\\'d go faster. --D.Haynie

Nope, didn't get the joke.
Must have a different sense of humor, because MorphOS' and OS4's revision numbers make sense to me.
The first number is for major revisions and the second number for minor enhancements.
The different product revision numbers aren't related to each other.

That's pretty easy.
All of it.
In fact, you don't even have to be running any additional software (and it crashes).

Yes Steven,
That is fair. And you might be right about OS4.
The primary logic behind the numbering of that coming from the fact that it comes after OS3.9 and is a major revision changes (to a new ISA).

And I'm not saying AROS isn't an impressive product.
But the libraries aren't finished yet, so its not like the major problem is bugs.
Its not finished yet.

And yet you've been asked to back up your claims.  And you have nothing.  AROS crashes just sitting there?  Are you for real?   I call bull****.   My AROS box has been up running and being used for over a month without a crash or reboot.  

What libraries are missing?  I'd like a list(Please go ahead and point me to the status page that hasn't been updated in 2-3 years.).  I'll be sure to get it back to the dev team so they work on it for you.

Yes, an update of that would be nice.
Bizarre that they would leave information that dated on their web page.

You guys are far too touchy.

Whow, thank you for that, now I can just leave this thread be and spend my time on something productive. You pretty much revealed yourself as the troll you are with that.
