You can say that AmigaOS4 is modern but what true advantages does it hold over the other OS's?
If it turns out to be a modern conterpart to AmigaOS 3.9 then some advantages would be: Fast! even on old hardware, Small & efficient, Very easy to use, Lots of software already written for it (some old but still usefull), spyware/adware free!, little to no viruses, fast Mac emulation (through Mac on Linux), Did I mention that the hardware also comes with Linux.
AmigaOS 4 should almost be considered a new platform with ties to an old platform. If it were a "brand new" OS with these features then you guys would be praising it instead of nit picking at it.
