Interview with Ben Hermans from Hyperion : Comment 179 of 194 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Mekanix on 09-Nov-2001 06:25 GMT | In reply to Comment 165 (smithy): x86 have always been part of Amiga Incs plans, back in the days they beleived that Intent could be used as the core of a desktopOS. Remember their plan was to run on "everything". Have a look at their zico-specs.
When Amiga Inc. realised that Intent couldn't (lack of MP etc.) OS5 were delayed and OS4 put into gear. For more than a year x86 wasn't named with one word neither for OS5 nor for OS5. Then a couple of month ago they confirmed the run on "everything" for OS5 naming x86 explicitly.
Remember that OS4 and OS5 are 2 totally different beast. OS4 will run in a sandbox on OS5. Apart from this Sandbox OS4 and OS5 will have little in common apart from their names. |
