That's very cool.
Looking forward to hardware so I can try it out!

I've told the masses: |
hmm, "The Final Update" it almost sounds like it's end of life and this is the "last" update for OS4 
Maybe the topic of the news should be "AmigaOS4 Final released" or something?
edit: sorry, just realized that HJF wrote that in the news item here too. Didn't know it was considered an "update".

Congratulations!
I wasn't expecting a long list of update 5 features - so that's a bonus.
What is better is that the political/commercial issues around OS4 seem to be easing and the only landmark we need to see now is new hardware shipping! |

I don't know about you, but wouldn't it interesting that such core function, which helps to strengthen the Amiga identity, could be shared amongst the many Amiga alike systems so that it would help create the momentum needed to keep it going?
It was already done in the past where either MorphOS/AmigaOS lended software from AROS for the benefit of all

Hmm, that's a point, but to be honest all I did was cut and paste the official press release into OS news form. So blame them!
Suppose we could tell /. but as I've never registered there*, someone else will have to do it!
* bit too nerdy, yes, even for me! Last edited by Stephen_Robinson on 24-Dec-2006 at 08:43 PM.

| OS4 has gone from strength to strength with each pre-release, and now we have OS4 final.
My sincere thanks to all invloved, especially the Friedens who championed this great OS.
Updated and installed!

| I know how easy it is to miss a small detail but I've seen a few posts here refering to OS4 Final. The news item is about OS4, The Final Update. Small difference but I'm sure there's some significance.
But this is great news - no mistake! At least it'll make me think twice (more like for a 22nd time) about rushing into an A9home purchase.
