Morphos Late June this year, the MorphOS team released the long-awaited MorphOS 2.0 release. It delivered a lot of needed new features, such as 3D support and a network stack. Despite the long list of new features, criticism was abound, mostly due to the high price (EUR 150), and the fact that it only ran on Pegasos and Efika hardware. Today, the MorphOS team released the first update to 2.0, aptly named MorphOS 2.1. Apart from that, there's news on the Mac Mini port of MorphOS.

Morphos didn't work for me

Umf... ;)
I tried the Morphos 2.0 CD 1.5 months ago, and it wouldn't work properly on my Pegasos (with ATI Radeon card, 128 MB RAM -- machine sent by the original company directly, i didn't put it together myself). It would load fine, but JUST at the time that it would switch to high-res for the graphical installation screens, the CRT monitor would go out of sync. It's a 1280x1024 85Hz monitor (capable of 1600x1200 at 60 Hz too), and never had such problems with it with any other OS. But Morphos 2.0 just didn't work, and I am not sure if this bug is actually fixed on 2.1 before I invest more time download it and try it.
