@Toaks

Laddy, since the disappointment of missing, late
and disappearing hardware is starting to weigh on
the party faithful perhaps you could see your way
clear to stepping aside and letting people ask for
another update on the OS side to tide them over.

I certainly don't have any unrealistic expectations
but would definitely like the ability to use my 256M
9250 card in my µA1's sole pci slot.

I've been adding software while waiting for our various
promised hardware projects to come to fruition. Another
OS update would open the "beta" testing phase to another
500+ users of varying abilities and capabilities which
can only be good news for the final product when that new
hardware arrives.

@Tuxedo

Over breakfast this morning EvilRich told us that overlay is not finished yet for the 9000+ series radeons.

There is still some bug hunting going on having to do with how the newer Radeons live in memory space. I certainly don't understand the details so don't expect me to respond to technical questions. Suffice to say the guy working on it is not finished.

The 7000 works OK.

By now Rich is on an airplane heading home - 1:30pm or so flight. It is now ~2:45pm. I am driving up to Seattle. Well, I am not driving at this very moment. The wife is.

Hows that for some news.

@kindergip
The problem is not with the party faithful who already use OS4, the problem is with those who can't use it (and therefore for who another pre-release update is pretty useless).

Honestly, the situation regarding OS4's lack of hardware is farcical. But I better stop there, to avoid ranting

Sounds like progress. OS4 just keeps getting better.
As far as update timing, I'll wait until "they" are ready
to release, either another update or the final gold version.

What I've got today works quite well.

Just my 2 cents.

@Hyperion

BUMP!

Or I dont see it?

Best regards!

Tuxedo.

P.S. GOOD WORK!

I don't make official statements for Hyperion, but...

I don't think there will be another update before final release. Matter of fact, I think there will be very interesting news later this month. But like I said, I do not make statements for Hyperion.

Thanks for the inofficial update.

"Interesting news"... Hmm what could that be? Speculation rises...

-one of the "new hardware" solutions received an OS4 license
-OS4 was ported to PS3
-OS4 runs on Mac Mini (PPC)
-OS4 for BlizzardPPC and CyberstormPPC is released for Christmas
-OS4 final is released regardless of hw-situation

Did I forget something, like, errr..., OS5 being released for x86?

Oh, I'm expecting the full release of OS4 judging from reading between the lines of Rouge's post.

Well, expecting some people to think that anyway!

Wehey! I like the tease.

I sure do hope this will be the Christmas prezzie we're all hoping for.

Thanks so much for your continued hard work on the OS4 project.

But will it be as world-shattering as last year's late December news?
