He is talking like he actually owns the OS and debate with people who have criticize it, even though those who do that actually owns it and have some experience with OS4.x.
You should at least have used the OS for a while before he starts defending it. What he does now is to me nothing but blind fanboy behaviour.

I see that the bottom left corner of the Top Secret box covers a drawer named Cyp???

You mean to say all these years you never even owned an NG box and dont even run os4? Wow. If you look up "fanboy" in the dictionary guess who there is a picture of?

I think there are many guys like this out there and its rather weird.

And then of course you have the anti morphos trolls who have never run Morphos in their life. So thats another funny situation..

back OT lets hope Amiwest reveals some 'secret'

@realize

Well you have anti-OS4 trolls who have never run OS4 either, so it balances out.

Actually, I've never run OS4 either, but my X1000 is on the way.

How could you be so crazy to spend that kind of money on something you have never used before? That is insane! Ridiculous! What is wrong with you???

Wait a minute.......... I never owned OS4.x for any of my Amiga computers before buying my X1000 either, though I could have purchased it for my A4000 w/CS-PPC board, before I sold both of my CS-PPC's and went backward to just a fast 68060 for my A4000, since I never used the PPC part of the CS-PPC anyway.

I did have a chance to see the X1000 running at AmiWest Shows for two years before I made up my mind to buy one and did have the opportunity to sit down and use an X1000 during those shows for a little while. That is what convinced me that it was a good idea for ME to buy an X1000. What pushed you over the edge and made you decide to purchase an X1000 Darrin?

who knows, but now you are over the edge, or how do i understand that?

@amigadave

Apart from being mad?

I've been waiting for a Next Gen Amiga since I held back on the original AmigaOne. I've followed the development of OS4 and I think it has now got to the point where I can use it as an alternative to my PCs for most work.

I've backed certain hardware items with my money in the past in order to support developers (Minimig, ARM controller, C-One, FPGA Arcade, Chameleon64) and I'm also looking forward to giving something back to Hyperion for their hard work developing the OS.

Most of all, I'm getting fed up with patching my franken-amigas with various boards and add-ons. I'm looking forward to getting a fast, new Amiga which is a direct continuation of the legacy and which doesn't have to be supported using bits and pieces off eBay. In theory, this should replace my A4000 tower, although I'm going to continue to get my "Classic" fix from my FPGA based Amigas.

@other Amiga loonies

I think I'm equally Amiga-mad. But I think I should support SW developers with my little hobby money, rather than spend years of hobby budget to x1000HW.

(for HW, I'm most willing to support the development of new low cost low end HW @1Ghz range)

@AmigaBlitter
"It's about time for another hint?"

Yes, if nothing more concrete and informative can be said.

You know I take that as a compliment realize

But I did run AOS from 1.0 - 3.9 and i figure 4.0 and the NG hardware is a good continuation of the classic period. I will find out next year when I buy into the NG era. After that I will become a fanboy monster - bragging and shouting out loud how good it is all the time

You guys are sure in for a good time

Virgin NG Amigan here too. Proud owner of my X1000
One of the aims of OS4 & X1000 was to attract new and classic Amiga users to AmigaOS4.
From a few comments here, that aim is being met.

My X1000 is the reinvestment of monies from the sale of my BPPC Towered A1200, some A1200Ds and some A600s. Those machines were all getting old and hacky. Glitches of a HW nature were beginning to appear...

I still have a nice 030 powered, indivision equipped A1200, however RuninUAE is so impressive that I can see the A1200 gathering dust.

The immediate familiarity of OS4 means that I have absolutely no doubt that the X1000 is an Amiga and that OS4 is the natural successor to OS3.9.

It's bloody quick too!!!

Same could be said about Morphos on a mac or AROS on a x86 pc.

which was probably the whole reason to post videos like that.
to me a proof of heritage is that aros runs on my genuine amigas. beat that..

@wawa

I'll never understand the reason to run AROS under 68k Amigas. It sounds like they want to re-invent the wheel.
