RISC OS A huge blow to the already small RISC OS market and community: Castle Technology has announced that the Iyonix range of ARM-based RISC OS computers will be taken off the market after 30th September. Support will continue through the Iyonix website, the dealer network, and by email. This leaves Advantage6 as the only manufacturer of RISC OS hardware with its A9Home computer.

I'm always surprised and puzzled how they have not turned this into the ideal NetBook operating system/hardware combination. The desktop is lost to Windows and MacOS X - but there is still alot of jockeying for positions. Linux is really getting in there - going hard at it. Microsoft has made a come back with Windows XP. RISCOS is in a perfect position - only if someone took it by the horns and did something with it.
