Hello Al ... The various flavours of *nix that run on Macs have over a decade of development behind them with far more man-power available than the OS4 team ...
Hello Al ... No, it won't. The PPC emulator that Bernie talked about was to be a 68k/OS3.x emulator, just like Amithlon, Umilator and UAE are. I once asked ...
Hello Jean-François ... That's not really an accurate description. OS X's lower layers are a modified form of BSD, but eveything above that is Apple's own...
Hello Dr. ... I'm sure they will. IBM's new agressive PPC strategies could be of very major benefit to the Amiga market, not just from Linux spin-offs but from...
... Well first I meant a bug free version Linux. And second about Java, that was my mistake, sorry. I tried to use Konq for Internet banking and logging onto a...
... I know someone who calls it a PPC version of a fifteen year old OS. ... Exactly. ... Indeed, I believe this information was released as such a while ago. ...
... While on the subject, I thought it might be possible to run the Cyber/Blizzard version of OS4 on this type of arrangement. And I'm guessing you could run...
Hi Colin, ... They have not been typing for two years, at least not typing OS4 code. Work stopped for many months because they were not being paid to do the...
Hi Peter, ... Yes. Sure, there *is* a lot of new stuff "under the bonnet". I can appreciate that there have been some big revisions there, and of course many...
... On that basis, Linux is a PPC (or x86) version of a 30 year old OS. ... I don't think all the features mentioned by Peter have been listed together. The...
... Well, I don't know where you get your information from, but firstly, what makes you think we're actually being paid for all this anyway ? You should have...
... You have install the cryptos and OpenSS yourself. Debian can't distirbute Konqueror with them already installed-- Federal US law on encrypted software. ...
... That is not true. I would guess that you've missed something wich you should install. SSL is working fine here. If I recall it correctly SSL isn't working ...
Hello Damien ... I found the same with one of the banks I log on to. It works with IBrowse but not Konqueror. Regards, Bill....

... Well, it is perfectly true. AmigaOS has been under development for about 20 years, and AOS 4 is the latest version. It has major improvements to the low...
... This is something I feel could have been fixed from the start. Since file-systems basically rely on a set block size such as 512, 1024, etc. The problem...
... What can we sat about XP then? Or even MacOSX, built on top of a 30 year old OS! ... But how the pre-release matches up to it is another matter. -- My...
... So it's like that AmiSSL you have to set up separately? ... Thanks. BTW, the last only works ion lower case. ... But, AFAIK you can't run Konqueror on an...
... Well, the guy's a copper and usually thinks ahead and makes strong points. He is hard to argue you with unless you really know your facts. But, the above ...
... Yes it would be nice to update my software but last time I did, with KMail it down loaded a newer version, unpacked it, installed it and that was the last ...
... Interesting, I can't use IB for this because I need Java, which IB can't do. ... But, as you may see, Konq can be updated for this. -- My regards, Damien...
... No you can't but you made a comparison about the browser so he did the same. Regarding "best renderer on AGA" I would say that IBrowse does the best job ...
... But that statement just doesn't make sense no matter how you try to look at it. It's like he forgot about every OS on the market wich isn't likely. It ...
... Hi Glenn, Which Java works with Konqueror? There's a reference to JDK 1.2, but I think that old stuff. I think on-line banking requires JAVA, doesn't it? ...
Hi Don, ... It is, but no-one cares because Unix is a damn good system and Linux has shown how it can continue to grow and develop over time. They don't seem...
Hi Damien, ... TD64 or NSD both fix the HD size limitations and are acceptable solutions. Really, any app that needs to access a device directly has to expect...
