Star Review: AmigaOS 4.1
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Tue 23rd Sep 2008 05:07 UTC
Amiga & AROS AmigaOS 4.1, which recently finally got a whole lot more accessible, has been reviewed by Ars Technica's Jeremy Reimer. "Long after most people had given it up for dead, companies such as Hyperion Entertainment Inc. are hard at work improving and enhancing the operating system. I had a change to look at a preview copy of the latest release, AmigaOS 4.1, and it is an impressive piece of work." Hardware 3D compositing, memory protection, virtual memory, a modern browser, and performance improvements are among the new features of AmigaOS 4.1. As a sidenote, OSNews will review AmigaOS 4.1 on the Sam440ep in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.

Eich then said that although Google is a mighty competitor, Mozilla has been doing open source software for years and although WebKit, the engine for Google's Chrome browser has been around for some time, Google's challenge will be to move it forward with its own developer community. "You can't just sprinkle open source pixie dust on it" and it works like magic, Eich said.


What a crock of crap. You're going to work on making your process model works with every revision of WebKit trunk. The innovation is coming from the entire WebKit Community and it's rapid.
