Also, we might as well let the thread know that MorphOS runs on the A1 too. We have one of "their" boards and it works! That should settle the issue of "write once, publish anywhere"... Plus, we are happy to sell a Pegasos to Mr. Hermans and his team or anyone else. Ben, you can have one from the next production and you do not even have to be a Betatester...;)

Morphos runs on AmigaOne too. : Comment 84 of 160 | ANN.lu |
Posted by JoannaK on 04-Sep-2002 18:32 GMT | In reply to Comment 53 (Justin Smith): At first a comment.. I have not seen neither Mos not OS4 .. I'm still waiting.
" >Amiga software runs on Pegasos with MorphOS. Both 68k and PPC.
Give it a rest, grandma. 3.x software, maybe, but if it won't run AmigaOS4 software, MorphOS is of no more use than UAE or Amithlon. And which do you think will handle AmigaOS 3.X software better, a hacked-together clone or an OS built with (legal) access to the 3.x sources?"
One that works and is available. Having source of old system does not quarantee port does actually work (or will happen on decent timeframe). As long as entire OS4 project is only Hearsay and Few screenshots there is only one PPC native OS that runs Amiga software (unless you consider UAE on linux :-).
Besides. What OS4 spesific software there is? Or is coming in next 1/2 year or so? Anything not Opensourced and not also available to MOS or OS3.9?
"I just don't get it--MorphOS seems absolutely pointless. "
As long as there is no Real and Usable OS4 it has very much much point. Even after that it may well be better and more stable and to gain more users/software makers behind it. Name alone does not make OS4 instant success.
In the end it's users (and developers) that make final decision. They use the system they like more. I understand that Os-maker-hyperion won't want to make Mos-ports of their future games, but I think that those old ones (assuming they don't include some kind hack to stop them being used on MOS) should work just fine.
And.. Having one system is good.. Having choise of two is IMHO better. |
