Thendic-Amiga Court Docs - 12/12/2003 - Last Day? : Comment 57 of 128 | ANN.lu |
Posted by MarkTime on 04-Dec-2003 01:22 GMT | In reply to Comment 47 (Gregg): AmigaOS had some wonderful ideas, but it is also woefully behind the times now. I think the compatibility with ancient apps is not as important anymore, even if it truly did need some in order to establish itself as the successor to the amiga legacy.
But now, we need to see innovation, while having some features that all OS's should have and the market takes for granted.
And thats hard, even irix has a port of openoffice.org. a port of Gimp. a port of imagemagicks, etc. etc.
The market has changed, and people expect to have a lot of apps as bog standard. AmigaOS or MorphOS has to have all that, just to be a boring, uninteresting also-ran.
After that, the fun begins.
But I think the good news is, that we can have all those things, and go back to innovating and being leading edge, because the Amiga community can rally around innovation and is not as beholden to old ideas.
I don't really care about the MorphOS/HyperionOS feud, because its this community that is the important thing. And if neither of those groups embrace the community, then maybe it'll just be AROS instead.
But I think to a certain extent there has been an outreach by Genesi towards the community and we can see the community starting to rally.
If my some impossible to imagine scenario, Hyperion wanted to sell their work on os4 to Genesi, and Genesi wanted to buy it, and it became the foundation for MorphOS, or was still called AmigaOS, I think that would be just great.
Both OS's...I've never seen OS 4, but they both seem to be about the same level, so I don't think it really matters. The vast majority of the work hasn't begun yet...
But I have a very real sense of optimism and hope that the work is about to begin. |
