OSNews Boardroom and
our company yacht, we actually forgot to link to the official announcements

While I do tend to prefer the the system design of MorphOS, AmigaOS 4 is quite well done as well. Still, even the best OS in the world has an uphill battle going when it has to convince people to spend $400+ dollars on a barebones motherboard+cpu combo based on a PowerPC G3 clone chip that's FAR outclassed by various COMPLETE low end PC systems that are way more powerful...
