In reply to Comment 28 (Some Farker):
Hi Some Farker. Nice hearing from you.

>AOS 4 will still lack critical stuff. But it's a step in the right direction.

For now, yes. I'm hopeful it won't take very long for some of the essential things to become available.

> Wow. This must be quite a shock to the hundreds of millions of
> people who run programs on them.

For some strange reason, SUSE linux came with PySol. It starts, then quits, 8 seconds later, by itself.

"AOS4.0 will bring back FUN to computing. "

> Unless you're some freak like Steve G. of c.s.a.m.

Lol :))

Some peple have all the luck. My system seems stable too. Then, a couple of days ago, it booted up in 640*480, so I shut it down and re-booted, it said "saving your settings", then shut down. I didn't change anything at all. When it re-booted, it was in 1280*1024, again?!?

Well, we would be able to boot off of a 1.44 meg floppy, if it had 16 megs of flash rom.

> *cough, splutter* How's that? Come again? Right, the Installer
> was just a figment of our imaginations or a nightmare or something, right?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you can still manually install a program?

> I have one too. See?

Curious thing about the ms-dos prompt in w98se. When the autoexec.bat started, xcopy worked one way, then, after w98se was launched and you open the ms-dos window, it worked another way. Made using w98se useless for me.

> Because non-multi user environments are the wave of the future
> and a sure route to securing professional interest in an OS.

I choose to "wave" goodbye to it.

> Listen carefully: firewall *good*.

Yes, while the browser is working, but if the broswer/e-mail program is quit, your computer has no business receiving and responding to signals from the ethernet card.

> Meh. I can download a ram-disk program and use it on my PC,
> yet I don't. Why? Because I don't have to. 120gb of HD space is *cheap*

I went to the SUSE on-line database, and a search showed NOTHING about a ram disk being avaiable.

> If you think that 4+ megs for a program is a "monstrosity" in this
> day and age, then perhaps you should go back to your 512k/512k A500...

I have a RAID HD, with a 2.26 MHz P4 and it takes 4 seconds to launch a solitare card game on SUSE?!? This is supposed to impress me?

"If you need to re-install AOS4.0, if you copied the DH0: to a cd right after a clean install, copying it back over, will take 20 seconds!!!"

> Because you've done it so many times, right? Oh! Wait a second,
> I thought the mana-from-heaven OS4 won't ever require a reinstall! Oh what will we do!

What if you alter settings, move/rename files, alter icons etc, then feel that you need it back to normal? On my DH0: I had it down to 3 directories in the root, and the rest were in a sub directory.

Attic (all my SW)
S (contains startup-sequence)
Devs (contains system-configuration)

I have those directories and S, Devs contain 1 file each, and the rest of the OS is elsewhere in the Attic subdir. It took a lot of trial and error to get it to work, hence, a few re-installs.

> and a "rollback mode".

Funny, I lost my HD partion info when I tried to install SUSE. I tried 3 different recovery programs. They didn't work. Turns out, you really need an OS installed to run one of those, but then, you wouldn't necessarily need a recovery program. I had to reformat the HD and re-install xp. Alot of help "rollback back" was.

> What competition? It's not going to "compete" with anything.
> What, do you think some giant corporation or government entity
> is going to drop what they're using now and scoop up AOS4?

YES I do. There are people out there (many of them) that are sick of the BS.


Why are you so negative? I'm not a pie in the sky, whimsical user. I've used computers since 1978.

Have you used that pathetic joke command called fdisk, that they expect you to use to format your hard drive to install w98se?? Okay, so that's going back 8 years. How about this then. Just yesterday, I opened 2 windows, and dragged across all the files off of a cd to my RAID HD. it was about 660 megs. xp took 22 minutes to copy it across, off of a 56 speed cd-rom. Even funnier was, the countdown clock went down to 18 mins, then back up to 20!! THEN, I copied another cd across, same amount of data, in an ms-dos shell, it took about 3 to 4 mins.????????

AmigaOne! I at the point of, AmigaOne, or abandon computing.
