And the total is.. 940. Not bad.
"Countdown to the draw: The promotion has ended. Coupon count may still rise as third party dealers submit their sales. Winners will be announced soon."
.. So, we could well make the 1000 mark, well done people, I hope you all order AmigaOnes as soon as they are available :)

The "I Am Amiga" promotion has ended! : Comment 90 of 134 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Don Cox on 27-Jul-2002 12:21 GMT | In reply to Comment 86 (Hagge): "But if a new Amiga mean low-end hardware at a regular-end price with the same os as the amigas had 10
years ago i don't really see why it's nice or anything. At 1992 the AmigaOS still owned, at 1985 it was even
better compared to the rest... But the same os will not be what ppl
think is the best one 2002.
"
Even OS 3.9 isn't the same OS as we had in 1992, which was 2.0 IIRC.
OS 4.0 will have substantial changes from 3.1. I don't think it's
necessary to turn AmigaOS into a Unix (like Apple) or into Intent.
It's very modular, and parts can be added and updated as needed.
Virtual memory and some memory protection are being added for OS 4,
and I believe Resource Tracking is planned for later.
Many things like support for Truetype fonts which have been available
as addons will now be bundled with the OS. There will be lots of popup
menus, and it will be easier to customise the look of the GUI. |
