    Well, the 107C wasn't, but the 107D will. I think this illustrates what BBRV try to say - all component suppliers that still wants to sell products in six months must do this. And those who haven't done it already, will do it in the upcoming months. But this is *their* problem, which is on a completely different abstraction level than what a system integrator needs to care about.

    No offence buddy, but I think it's funny to see a supporter of the AmigaInc troika (AInc + Eyetech + Hyperion), as well as the *other* "Troika", etc, lecturing Genesi about business practice! ;-) Maybe your expert knowledge could be used as a consultant to *those* companies instead? :-P

    I wish there were just one community.


    IMHO, there is only one community. MorphOS, AmigaOS, AROS, Amiga Emulators, etc is what unites us and differs us from other platforms, such as Windows, Mac, Linux, etc. Different flavours perhaps, but still the same fundamental interest.

    It seems like there are much more activity on the OS4 side and I really like that community.


    Surely, you must be talking about the web forums now instead of the underlying community? AW.net compared to MorphZone.org, right? But when you compare those forums, you should also look at the content and not only the activity. The AW posting style is more like IRC than a traditional forum, there can be a couple of people sitting a few hours "chatting" to each other, hitting reload every minute, sometimes adding nothing but a smiley or so to the discussion. IMHO, the quality of the posts on MorphZone is higher, more thought through, and the site doesn't suffer from the disturbing "noise" seen on AW. I think the MZ style is good and very pleasant. There is always the IRC as a complement for killing some time with online chatting ...

    And we should also look beyond our noses and plan how to break the binary compatibility to gain memoryprotection in the least painful way when the time is right.


    MorphOS already did that. The underlying Quark kernel has solid memory protection, the "A-box" running on top of it, and the applications inside it, can't bring it down. This is the only way to do it cleanly in an Amiga envireonment, more than this can't be done. If you want something else, then maybe you are looking for something different than the Amiga?


    @ Andreas_Wolf

    Thanks, I see that now. The updated/bugfixed 108 became 109 instead. This is a good move and avoids confusion, anything 108 is now single CPU only, and the 109 is essentially the same thing but *dual* CPU ...
    MorphOS is Amiga done right! :-)
    MorphOS NG will be AROS done right! :-)
