Yeah, it could have been released in 1994 ahead of Windows 1995 with a healthy C= and a huge CES launch or NYC event . The product itself was fine but not relevant to anyone outside of the Amiga bubble Saying that, it impressed my Uni friends along with CrossDos and the game 'Napalm'. These programs and the fact I could transfer documents between the Uni PeeCees and my Amiga almost made the Amiga relevant and attractive compared to their aging Windows95 PeeCees that were falling apart by the early 2000s!

Why would we downgrade to AmigaOS 3.2.x when we already have OS 3.9?
The upgrade currently being worked on seems to have been designated 3.1.4 so I assume that hth313 was thinking that 3.2.x would be a release that would surpass 3.9. We are talking about what we think will/may happen in the future.
You will be able to use 3.1.4 together will 3.9 so you get the best of both worlds. A-EON are also working on Enhancer for 3.x so you could take the best of all 3 and have something vastly improved over what we currently have on 68k.

It all has to be seen to be believed. This seems to be a money spinning exercise IMHO rather than fulfilling an actual need for Classic users
OS4.x is the future unless AROS miraculously gains relevance and market share or MorphOS goes x64 and retains compatibility. The Vampire already has VampireOS using OS3.9 as a base. How will OS 3.2.x improve on it?

That sounds cool, but I need to be sold the tangible benefit of these products. I was burnt by my experiences of installing Boing Bag 2 which required a new installer library just to work (from memory, anyway it was a faff and the problem was not documented in the docs). I therefore have never installed Boing Bags 3 and 4 and other than faster loading icons I don't see what I'm missing out on to be honest.
It was also ridiculous that the Reference/Help HTML documentation for OS3.9 were on huge unwieldy files that had to be split into smaller documents before they were usable
