Click image for fullsize | First Workbench after 5 years away!  | Description: Had my Sam 440ep flex (OS4.1 update 2) for just over a week now and loving it (for the most part) so far!
Last Amiga was a microA1 with early OS4.0 which I sold on about 5 years ago. Things have moved on nicely since then and OS4.1 is a treat.
Favourite Workbench 4.1 features so far:
+ show .info files option in window menu
+ new view by name set up is great, especially when working with mp3s
+Ringhio
+ default theme and window transparency (nice without being OTT)
+ icons are the best ever, beautiful
+power on to google search page time is amazing (so quick!)
Not so sure about:
- context menus (turned off in WBStartup, seemed a bit clunky and unnecessary, would rather see standard WB menu further enhanced
- prefs drawer is a bit confusing and could do with some prefs being integrated, e.g. AHI and Sound, Printers
- some stuff seems redundant, like Picasso96 prefs, PlayCD (TuneNet better and included anyway)
- WBPattern, doesn't scale and keep asect ratio of backdrops which is annoying with a widescreen display
Favourite programs so far:
+ OWB is fantastic, I actually prefer to Firefox (apart from lack of flash), really nice feel and fast
+ TuneNet
+ DvPlayer
+ Celestia, very cool and filling a hole since Wonders of the Solar System series finished on the BBC
+ ADRipper is great for making mp3 files from CDs
+ SimpleMail, always used YAM in the past but thought I would try for a change and so far so good
