Just in case you didn't noticed:: 'Crisot' (the same guy who released the 'pegasos in the toilet' video some time ago, about we laught a lot) released a video which shows current status of OS4 (please check the previous posting here on ann.lu). I have watched this video now again and again and it's normal to come to the conclusion that it's faked. No, not the content, but the speed. The framerate is not correct/realtime, it was made faster. You can spot this easily by watching the mouse movements of the user for example.
Is OS4 so bad that's required to release a video which is 'faked' in such way? I don't think so. And yes, I agree that the Prerelease isn't "the fast thing" i expected to get for my A1.
It makes me a little bit sick how some users are operate to spread 'propaganda'. Isn't it bad enough already that OS4 is so much behind the competition in same market. Now MorphOS users laugh at me for beeing a loyal amiga user. :-\ I'm already happy with the Prerelease, but I hope thing will become a lot faster, but such video is useless.
This is a request to all: please keep such stuff out of this community. When you release a video then release a video which shows true facts. It's from absolutly no use to 'lie' by publishing false information. In the end the normal user is the only stupid.
Crisot, release a proper version of your video to stop this! Thanks.
@kemp:
Sorry for posting over anonymizer, but i have reasons to keep my IP/ identity secret for now. Thanks for your understanding. But I feelt it is required to bring this to public discussion. :\

[forum] OS4 video by crisot : Comment 72 of 164 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Peter Gordon on 11-Jul-2004 20:12 GMT | In reply to Comment 70 (catohagen): The video was captured on an AmigaOne XE-G4 933Mhz, with Voodoo 3, native P96 and GFX.
I have an AmigaOne XE-G4 800Mhz, with Radeon, native P96 and GFX. However, the Radeon driver isn't as mature as the Voodoo one, and doesn't have full hardware acceleration for intuition.
On my system, "dragging over" the MUI prefs panes, and using AmiPDF is EASILY as fast as the video, no doubt about it. IBrowse loads a bit slower, but once loaded works as fast as in the video. Dragging icons also seems about right for my system.
The only things noticeably slower on my system are SimpleMail loading & scrolling (but then I have thousands of mails in there), and solid resizing. |
