@Thread

I don't know if this is good or bad news yet. hahaha I think the popcorn comment I saw from Ben is really quite valid now

My reply to my friend was WOW and that's it. Then I posted it here. I am still rebounding.
I was e-mailed this from a friend who only knows my interest in AMIGA because I buy old, cheap ones and get them working if I can for interested people.

Maybe this is the end of AMIGA, maybe it can't survive another exchange.

Then again, if it makes AMIGA a computer for the people once again that is affordable, I don't see that as bad.

My concerns with AROS are far from few.
The serious lack of compatibility of legacy AMIGA apps.
The need for a integrated 68kx86 JIT interpreter.
Memory subsystem could use an overhaul. Multi-user support, multi cpu etc.. RADEON driver?? Still, perhaps this will help all that get developed! maybe they can help if they have some $ to spend and want the OS that ran on it to continue.

Maybe they can strike a deal with Hyperion?? if that comment about legal action gets dropped after discussions with them. Maybe OS4 will get a port????? is that even possible?!?!

I don't know! it is kind of exciting for what it possibly, potentially could mean.
Trying to remain optimistic here! I have seen way to much bad for AMIGA, maybe this is good, just maybe!

I watch with interest.

I feel sorry for the AROS devs if this comes true and if commodore changes it to the way AROS devs dont like it to be. But future will tell.


I feel AROS would do well with a change. Use for example emumiga to run legacy Amiga software. If they want to sell serious computers with AROS on it, then IMHO, it needs a big upgrade that would probably break compatibility with previous versions and software.

Things that are needed

new GUI
SMP
VM
New file system
new APIs
x86-64 support, drivers....

it's a LOT of work.

As to AROS devs, they can still choose to develop AROS in whichever direction they feel like going.

@Kicko

blade runner qoute!

;)))

"A coding sequence cannot be revised once it's been established. "

This is unstoppable now! Chain reaction has begun!

I wonder what will Hyperion do now... port OS4 to x86... the only solution...

courts will last another 10 years...
