#INSTALL WACOM INTUOS 4 PC#
One doesn’t have to give up their Mac or PC to own an Amiga or run AmigaOS/MorphOS… That pool of potential customers is WAY too small to matter for survival of either platform.Įach has to lure previous Amiga Owners and present owners who haven’t yet decided on either platform AND be compelling to people in the PC and Mac world who would be attracted to what they have to offer. It’s stupid for AmigaOS and MorphOS to try to convert each others users. Some think MorphOS is the future of AmigaOS, and others think AmigaOS 4.0 is… Hey… OS/2 is still being sold and supported (eComCenter).Īnd AmigaOS has LOTS of fans out there. There certainly is plenty of room for another OS to carve out a niche.
#INSTALL WACOM INTUOS 4 WINDOWS#
The AOS vs MorphOS battle is futile, the real battle is if any will be able to surive in a Windows world which I hate to say it is. Windows has the name, the marketing push and vendor support. > Uhh both AOS and MorphOS ars insignifigant insects to gateszilla and his Windows. And my shot is going to be for an AmigaONE and AOS 4. It looks like a nice board, and MorphOS looks good.īut I only have enough money to make one shot at this. If money were no object for me, I’d have a Peg II. That didn’t help BeOS, OS/2 and other technically superior OSes that didn’t make it. Once AOS 4 is in release, it will become obvious that AOS will win the battle because of the name, the marketing push, and the vendor support. But, I wouldn’t crow too loudly right now. AOS 4.0 is really a 1.0 release.Īnd it will only become available to developers to develop for in the next few weeks. There’s more apps for AOS4 then that just coming from Hyperion itself…Īnd MorphOS does has the benefit of having been released and in a 1.4.x version. The “Amiga” name is worth zilch nowadays. > Actually, so far I’ve seen about… uh… 2 or 3 native applications for AOS4 _announced_, whilst there are tens of native applications for MOS already available.
If someone had the money, it would be best to own both systems, since they are 2 different things, both with weakness and strengths. But that compatability isnt the sole reason to purchase the system. Linux runs its won applications and some windows ones wtih extra software. AmigaOS and AmigaONE is the continuation of the cvore AmigaOS and are aimerd towards the old uesers, or towards peoople looking for a lean OS. Its compatability with the old Amigas is just to try and gain some customers. MorphOS and Pegasos is a completely new platform that will eventually making either greater leaps away from the AmigaOS. The way everyone compares them like they are making the choice of an AMD or Intel processor on the x86 side is false. Both share compatability of 680×0 AmigaOS applications, but other than that, they arae 2 diffent things. Pegasos and AmigaONE, MorphOS and AmigaOS 4 are 2 completely different things. luckily, the pegasos uses an open firmware model that is open to patches.įor god sakes people. thanks to the DMCA, even a friendly hacker cannot spread the word on how it can/should be done without being liable, even without profitting. the solution is not so difficult technically, it just wouldn’t be commercially feasible due to legal liabilities.
If you want to support MorphOS, then get some applications written for it or write some killer documentation, or betatest or something more tangible than lurking around in messageboards.Īs far as the MacOnLinux used to port AmigaOS to pegasos, its not necessary. People will rally behind what they have purchased. In the end, stop trying to do a pepsi challenge with it.
I have my doubts the name will carry it to sustainability anyway, but I’m happy they are trying. Without support for the extensive name recognition, development interest just isn’t there.
#INSTALL WACOM INTUOS 4 SOFTWARE#
MorphOS, even on a feature for feature comparison, cannot claim to be able to run whatever software will come out for the Amiga platform in the future. How about compatability with applications written for ‘Amiga” platform that take advantage of the newer libraries and calls and functionalities.
