New Amithlon Kernel available : Comment 13 of 17 | ANN.lu |
Posted by ToP on 13-Nov-2003 20:55 GMT | In reply to Comment 12 (pixie): Amithlon community should be helped and supported by AMIGA INC as well, as WinUAE, LinuxUAE because AmigaOS is running very well under PC hardware.
Several Amiga users are now using Amithlon and WinUAE with powerfull PCs.
This permite several people still be creative and productive under AmigaOS since now some years.
On these systems AMigaOS is running very well, and could be is real competitor of others OS for an every day use and even some professional use.
The new PCs become real Amiga clones running AmigaOS VERY VERY FAST.
I think that Amithlon and WinUAE are not competitors of the new AmigaPowerPC computers running AmigaOS PPC system.
Amithlon and WinUAE will progress and still improve compatibility with AmigaOS classic and probably later will support the incoming new AmigaOS.
Amithlon and WinUAE community are an other Amiga community, a parallel community of the official Amiga community.
As it is an Amiga community that is generating new Amiga Users and creating new interest to AmigaOS for People, AMiga Inc and even Hyperion should support that alternative Amiga community that is AMiga and Still AMiga.
Support why ? by helping WinUAE-(AFever-Cloanto) and AMithlon open independant developpers to have an official and reconized support.
This can help AmigaOS progressing too on PC hardware while it is progressing well on PowerPC hardware.
All AMiga community can work together by supporting themselves and acting together to make a common goal = a better AmigaOS operating system.
Amithlon developpers like Bernie and other independant need OFFICIAL support from Amiga Inc. it is good for Amiga community. |
