@wawa

Also I read of other limits such as USB. Can a USB stick be recognised by OS4 under emulation? Can this work in OS3 emulation even?

- access to a USB stick to save and share text files; brilliant USB support via Poseidon, no issue with FAT or even NTSC formatted* sticks/external drives, just plug in and, as you'd expect, the icon pops up on Wanderer.


What's an NTSC formatted drive? Never The Same Cache twice?

It looks and works like an Amiga. It is an Amiga.


Wait I thought you said it was an AmigaOne?

I don't know why anyone would prefer crippled 22-year-old hardware and OS3.


There's one main reason. To play games. It really only becomes crippled if you try to browse with it or you lack file sharing capabilities like a USB port. Fiddling with FTP over the network, burning a CDRW or copying to floppy is hard when you could just stick a USB stick in the middle.

Must be I wonder it it would also handle PAL formatted ones too.. Anyway, thanks for spotting my stupid typo - I've fixed it back in the original post.

Cheers,
Nigel.

Oh yeah, that's why I don't use legacy hardware that much, I don't play games that frequently.
AND the primary reason I use computers is for web browsing.
