Would be nice to hear from the devs about the S60.

Marcik is working on a browser based on the S60 code for MorphOS. Once that is finished a port to OS 3.x/4.0 or AROS is possible.

@Tempest

If Morhpos is an Amiga clone, why would there need to be any porting?

Well, lets put it this way, native OS4 or MOS software doesn't run on classic hardware with OS3.x because it isn't compatible. It needs to be recompiled to run on classic Amiga's running OS3.x. Native OS4 or MOS software is also not compatible with each other (alltough there's OS4Emu for MOS :-)). In other words somebody has to port it to make it run on OS4 or OS3.x.

OS4 and MOS are both Amiga clones, they can run classic Amiga software as long as it doesn't use the custom chips of the Amiga :-)

What if people could answer like that. I admire your way of telling about OS4 and MOS.

Just had to add this, as I loved your reply.
